Represented by Hazel Malone Management, her earliest films were Norman J. Warren's Loving Feeling and Pete Walker's School for Sex (both 1969), and she also appeared briefly in a scene in the troubled cult horror film Incense for the Damned (1970). However her breakthrough role was playing Paola in There's a Girl in My Soup (1970) with Peter Sellers. She went on to do the black comedy Burke & Hare (1972), playing Marie, and another Sellers film, Soft Beds, Hard Battles (1974).
After that appearance, she moved to France where she starred in such films as Et si tu n'en Veux Pas (1974) and Les Raisins de la Mort (1978), directed by Jean Rollin. The producer of Rollin's La Rose de Fer, then gave her the lead in the film but it was not a success. Later she returned to England to appear in Keep It Up Downstairs (1976) alongside Diana Dors, Jack Wild and Mary Millington.
Her first television work came in October 1971 with a role in Coronation Street, playing Ray Langton's friend. Then came guest starring roles in an episode of Play of the Month for the BBC in "Don Quixote" (1973) with Rex Harrison and for ITV's Sunday Night Theatre "Giants & Ogres" (1971). She was cast in numerous guest starring appearances in many television comedy series such as Happy Ever After (1976) with Terry Scott and June Whitfield, as well as My Honourable Mrs (1975) with Derek Nimmo for the BBC. She co-starred in an episode of the thriller You're on Your Own starring Denis Quilley, for the BBC.
She played seductive French au-pair Danielle Favre in the first three series of the ITV sitcom Mind Your Language (1977–79); she then took on her stage roles in Happy Birthday (reuniting with Frazer Hines), and starring in a pantomime of Aladdin. Pascal left for the United States in 1980, where she acted in Hollywood with a two-year contract in The Young and the Restless, Gavillan, My Man Adam, Lightning, The White Stallion. She returned to England in 1987.
In 2015, Pascal joined the cast for a new comedy series called For the Love of Ella. The series also stars Ewen Macintosh, Lucy Drive, Bobby Ball, Alex Reid, Daniel Peacock, Melanie Sykes, Darren Day and Billy Pearce.
Since work had been scarce as an actress for some years, Pascal has turned her talent to producing her first film Cold Sun starring Patrick Bergin and Ian Ogilvy. The film is produced by Pascal's own company MFC Productions Ltd and Pascal Productions Ltd. She is also to make an appearance in the film.
Pascal made her music debut in August 1968 with the UK release of her promo double single When It Comes to Love / Got It Badly. Released on SNB Records UK, the ballad-driven songs received good reviews from critics, but failed to make a commercial impact. With her acting career taking off, Pascal pursued acting full time and didn’t return to the music scene for over a decade.
In 1979, Pascal returned to the music industry with record executives hoping to cash in on her burgeoning success from Mind Your Language. Signed to RCA Victor UK, she released her biggest music hit to date, Woman Is Free, as a promo single along with Symphony Just For Me. Released only in the United Kingdom, Woman Is Free achieved modest success and was a bop hit in disco clubs. The popularity of the song continued when it was covered by Grace Kennedy for her debut album Desires the following year.
The moderate success of Woman Is Free propelled RCA UK to release Pascal’s next single I Can’t Get Enough in 1981. The synth pop/soul inspired song, along with the singles second track Make Love To Me, failed to find success on the music charts. Subsequently Pascal was dropped from the label without releasing a full length studio album.
Since 1981, Pascal has remained mostly inactive in the music industry. As of 2020, her catalogue of music is out of print, and physical copies of the vinyl singles are hard to find. Although her music has yet to be remastered and released on music streaming platforms, Pascal does feature her entire collection of songs on her official website.
