Hattie Jacques as Roman lady in West End revue
1965 - Now Hattie is right over the table and is slipping fast, all the efforts of both her companion and the propmen and necessary to save her from sliding out of the frame. A Roman Scandal In A West End Revue: One of the highlights of the new intimates revue The Bells of St. Martins at the St. Martins Theatre, is In Perspective in which outsize comedienne Hattie Jacques appears inside a picture frame, seated at a table with three Roman admirers, Hattie sings to them nostalgically while they drink toasts to her beauty. All is well until an apple rolls down the table and out of sight, then Hattie herself starts to fall, she tries desperately to save herself but thrusting a leg over the table it is too late and she ends spread eagled on the table, her wreath awry, but still gamely finishing her song. Photographers take you behind the scenes and show you how two tough propmen hold Hattie during her Ordeal. (Credit Image: (c) Keystone Pictures USA/ZUMAPRESS.com/Mary Evans)
