People old enough to remember watching "Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In" will remember Judy Carne as the English lass whose stock phrase was "Sock it to me," after which she would be pelted or soaked with water.
She was born Joyce Botterill. After getting a few acting roles in her native England, she moved to the States and did the same. She also was for two years married in the early to mid 1960s to actor Burt Reynolds.
In 1968 she became part of the "Laugh-In" cast, where she gained her own bit of celebrity. After the show closed in 1970,her career hit the skids. She developed a drug problem, was in a near-fatal wreck, and in that same year, 1978, was arrested on a drug charge in London. She now lives in England.
