Behold what Informative Caption tells me is a "\[p\]ortrait of actors Imelda Staunton and Maurice Thorogood laughing and jumping through through a park, celebrating winning Most Promising Actress and Actor at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, London, August 3rd 1976." Maurice *was* in *The Bitch* with Joan Collins -- and my god if that's not living up to one's promise, I do not know what is, and that is completely sincere on my part -- and seems do to a lot of stage-managing and theatrical direction now. He got a truly glorious height on this leap and his 70s hair was delightful! And RADA certainly got it right with Imelda Staunton -- our current Queen of *The Crown*s to come -- and, apparently, an aficionado of cute clogs for going on 45 years.
