Matey (Marguerite Ballard) in Lord Peter Wimsey
I was watching "Have His Carcase" (Lord Peter Wimsey) when I recognized Matey. Her role was an emotional one and it was interesting to see Matey as a dramatic character. Matey was a guest at a hotel and had fallen in love with one of the staff dancers. Except for the bad wig and make-up she was still our Matey from down the Bailey.
Also, the actress playing Harriet Vane was the real life love interest of our Sam Ballard. They had reportedly lived together for 8 years and were planning to marry at the time of his death.
