It became clear that the show was winding down but, in some ways, the storylines started focusing on the characters again instead of the opulence of earlier seasons. One highlight was the addition of Stephanie Beacham. Her Sable character from the two-season Colbys spin-off became a strong nemesis for Alexis (Collins) and filled a void when Collins wasn’t on screen. Some of the best scenes of the season involved the two divas squaring off with one another.
Well, the divas have been reunited — for a Snickers commercial of all things. Collins plays the alter-ego of an egotistical English football player who’s upset that someone has taken his deodorant. Mr. T was originally supposed to be the other character in the spot — a player who’d mad that he’s been pulled from the game –but Collins suggested her old Dynasty sparring partner, Beacham.
Collins told the Daily Mail, “When they said, ‘we need a similar lady to come on and be another diva,” I said, ‘well, there’s only one choice – Stephanie’. I mean, we had so much fun on Dynasty.”
Here’s the commercial, as well as some behind-the-scenes footage:
