Lindsey "Linzi" Jane Drew (born 11 May 1958 in Bristol) is an English former glamour model, producer, adult model and pornographic actress.[3] During a varied career in the UK sex industry Drew worked as a Page Three girl, stripper, glamour model and porn actress and was at one time the editor of the British edition of Penthouse magazine. In the 1980s, she appeared nude on a monthly basis in the softcore magazine Club International. In the 1990s she was jailed for illegally distributing pornography,[4] something which she and boyfriend, Simon Honey aka Lindsay Honey or Ben Dover, discussed in a BBC Open Space documentary entitled More Sex Please, We're British (1993).[5] This documentary, which argues for liberalisation of censorship laws, was made by Isobel Koprowski, the former editor of Forum magazine.

Drew has also had minor roles in a handful of mainstream films, including An American Werewolf in London,[6] and a number of Ken Russell films, including starring in the Nessun dorma[7] segment of the multi-director film, Aria. She also appeared on the cover of the 1984 Roger Waters concept album The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking.[8] and the film back-projected during the accompanying live tour.[9]

In 1993, she published her autobiography, Try Everything Once Except Incest and Morris Dancing: The Intimate Autobiography of a Dangerous Lady (ISBN 978-1857820348).

Drew retired from the porn industry at the age of 35. She later had a son, Tyger Drew-Honey, who became known for playing Jake in the BBC television sitcom Outnumbered. She and Dover subsequently split up.[10]
