Watched an episode of the Saint earlier this week from 1964 and the glamourous co star of the episode was Jean Marsh. She turned out to be a rather different character later in Upstairs Downstairs

My wife recognised her, I didn’t believe it until I looked on IMDB and then had to tell my wife she was correct through gritted teeth.So how come you recognised her then?
