At 102, Beatrice Young is Britain's oldest working model - she regularly works for 'Uglies', the agency for people with unique or unusual qualities.

She was born Ivy Beatrice Sparrow in 1899, changing her name when she married the actor Arthur Young. Around the time that Charlie Chaplin was making his first films, Ivy became an actress and for many years was billed under her stage name 'Beatrice Cane' in London's West End.
Chrissie Kravchenko went to talk to her about her long career and to find out how she ended up modelling.
