Joan Collins takes centre stage on new Dynasty series box set after three-decade feud

After a feud that spanned three decades, Joan Collins has declared triumph over her Dynasty co-stars, with her character Alexis “finally where she belongs: front and centre”.

Scheming Alexis Carrington Colby is the most prominent figure on a new box set of the series, famous for its catfighting, released in August.

It comes after the actress claimed the late actor John Forsythe, who played her on-screen ex-husband billionaire oil tycoon Blake Carrington, insisted his image was always given prominence over his two female co-stars.

Promotional material for the 1980s series often featured John at the front, with his warring wife and ex-wife behind.

She added: “He had to have more lines than anybody."
