Ercole, Sansone, Maciste e Ursus gli invincibili (1964) credited, as Astra.

Hélène is hilarious in this peplum comedy as a ditzy high priestess.

Asso di picche - Operazione controspionaggio (1965) credited, as Pat.
This was the first of several Eurospy appearances, though she has been quoted as saying that she narrowly missed out on getting the role played by Daniela Bianchi in From Russia With Love. The book "99 Donne" by Manlio Gomarsca and Davide Pulici quotes an interview with Helene, saying "I took belly-dancing lessons for 15 days and when I saw the film I didn't recognise myself... I became so popular, people stopped me on the street".

Il conquistatore di Atlantide (1965) credited, as Queen Ming.

Hélène's final peplum appearance, chewing the scenery as the Queen of Atlantis, is one of her most memorable, thanks in some part to a truly amazing costume and throne.

Agente segreto 777 - Invito ad uccidere (1966) credited, as Jeanne Cartier.

Johan says "Despite being second billed, this is really a supporting role and Hélène only appears in some scattered scenes in this very cheap-looking, zero budget Eurospy flick".

Duello nel mondo (1966) credited as Sherill Morgan, as Mary Brightford.

This was one of several occasions when she would be credited under the supposedly American-sounding pseudonym "Sherill Morgan", though I can't imagine that any Americans would have had any problem pronouncing or remembering her as Helene Chanel. The pseudonym really sounds more Welsh than American!
