    TV doesn’t do her justice, I met her several times when I worked as an extra and she was stunningly beautiful; her skin was like porcelain, she was tall and poised and was extremely sexy. She was also so polite and down to Earth,

      An ugly woman and a complete fake with a manufactured upper middle class background.

      She and Mollie Sugden are my favorite actresses which I guess is something coming from an American from Los Angeles. I love listening to Ms Keith and watching her specials on traveling the small villages of Great Britain. I believe she is a woman of true class, as was Mollie Sugden. So much classier, polite, and more refined and “real” than the low rent, amoral gaggle of Hollywood actresses.

    May I say, a few glasses of red on a Sunday evening, Penelope doing that interview, and I’m rather in ore of her. Such a fabulous actress in her time, so elegant and sophisticated and such a delight to listen to. Very charmed by her.... Thank you for the privilege of this being posted here.

    To my mind she was the very best female guest star on Morecambe and Wise. She gelled so seamlessly into their comedy. One of the funniest things ever broadcast is her hobbling to the front of the stage, turban falling down over her face and Eric sporting her missing shoe jammed by the stiletto heel into his top hat.

    Great interview. An upper middle class presenter interviewing an upper middle class actress and convincing each other that they are down to earth and people of the people who are grounded and still not affected.......I don't ever remember in my youth anyone from Slough in those times creating Bargello quilts or strips in between their factory shifts! of course I am being facetious which is so middle class.....or is that upper middle class?????!!!!!

      Bargello quilt? It’s clearly an embroidery. There certainly are Bargello quilts, but this is not one. Equally, there isn’t much down time in factory work while there is lots of it in film, television and stage. And I have seen nurses on shift doing a little knitting so, it has absolutely nothing to with any class system. It’s exactly what she said, it’s kept her from mindless eating or excess smoking.

    it's too bad that Doctor Who never did a Romana 2 regeneration. Watching her go through severalf different "people" was humorous. I think it would be interesting if when Ncuti goes through his he also goes through several choices, one being Penelope, before settling for another player.

    I cant imagine Penelope playing a "cockney bitch" I think her accent got less upper class as she aged though if you watch more recent interviews she sounds alot less posh but maybe here she was so used to playing Margot it became second nature for her to talk like that in everyday life I spose.

    This bit could make a decent comedy skit all by itself. Just stick Hyacinth Bucket in another chair and let them out-smarm each other. They'd continue bragging about themselves until Hyacinth inadvertently admits she blew the Major in the greenhouse. Thus upping Penelope's story about getting shagged in Harrod's while Being Served by yet another Major.
