M.A.C. siren and actress Raquel Welch at 67 still turns heads. Her good bones and lithe frame have won her a spot on the new CBS television series "Welcome to the Captain."

The show is a comedy about an eclectic group of people whose lives are intertwined in a fabled Hollywood apartment building, El Capitan, which they've dubbed "The Captain."
Josh (Fran Kranz) is a Hollywood whiz kid whose filmmaking career has hit a wall.
The network boiler plate on the show states, "just when Josh is about to move back to New York, his accountant-to-the-stars best friend, Marty (Chris Klein), convinces him to move into his legendary apartment building. Among the eccentric tenants are Uncle Saul (Emmy Award nominee Jeffrey Tambor), a former "Three's Company" writer who is the building's self-proclaimed expert on anything and everything; Charlene (Golden Globe Award winner Raquel Welch), the femme fatale who welcomes Josh in her own seductive style; Jesus (Al Madrigal), a gossipy doorman who knows all the residents' most tantalizing secrets and Astrid (Valerie Azlynn), a flighty, aspiring young actress.
In the show, Raquel plays 52-year-old 'aging actress' Charlene Van Ark, who is claiming to be 42 as she attempts to make a comeback.
Raquel's man-eating character Charlene insists on personally welcoming every new male arrival to the building behind closed doors.
