Christine Holmes began her career in show business while she was still at school. In the early sixties she sang with The Downbeats and The Applejacks before pursuing a solo career, making her first record when she was seventeen. More records followed.

Christine also appeared in a series of Dickie Valentine shows and did a season of cabaret in London. In the autumn of 1965, she made her first stage appearance in London's West End when she was given the part of Charlie in the Anna Neagle/Joe Brown musical "Charlie Girl". She then landed a regular role in the popular BBC television children's variety programme Crackerjack! (1955).

In the late sixties Christine sang with group The Family Dogg, before leaving to continue her solo career under the name Kristine Sparkle. She later turned to song writing and became an impressionist, appearing regularly in the television series Who Do You Do (1972).
