How tall is Angela Cartwright

Angela hasn't had a comment for nearly 15 years - so let's do something about this unfortunate situation...

I had no idea that Angela played Brigitta in 'The Sound of Music', so she was a talented little girl. I do remember her as Penny, Will's elder sister, in 'Lost In Space' though. Aged around 7-9 years, it was far and away my favourite programme, and very popular with the kids in my class.

Once we had to write an essay on our favourite programmes and read our efforts out to the class. Everyone wanted to write about 'Lost In Space'. Only one composition per programme was accepted though, so the vast majority of us had to re-write ours! 😂😂😂

The girl whose essay on 'Lost In Space' was selected was such a likeable girl that I doubt if anyone minded. Her name was Margaret, which coincidentally happens to be Angela's middle name. Twice a week, on Mondays and Thursdays, Margaret would feed me biscuits through a hole in her fence on our way home because she was concerned that I was too skinny. What a thoughtful child! I met Margaret many times after I left school. She had grown really tall, about 5ft9, and was even prettier than she was at school - and that's saying something! She had a little toddler, a boy I think, whom she'd be pushing in a buggy.

⭐ 'Lost In Space' has shown recently on the Horror channel. It isn't on at the moment, but that's not to say it won't be on again. 🤞

I'm here to offer Angela 5ft5.

I've met Angela once about 15 years ago, when she still had her Rubber Boots store. I couldn't see how much heel her shoes had, but she appeared to be about 5'7" with shoes, standing next to me. I'm 5'9" and I wasn't a lot taller than she. I would say that she is at least 5'4 1/2", if not taller.
