Mrs. Partridge

[onyx(John)]

Is it me or do you think that this does not look like Mrs Partridge/Rosemary Martin in this scene from the pilot. If you watch the video it looks even less like her. I had never noticed this before.

I suspect that as she didn't have to speak it wasn't worth having her on location, it's probably one of the crew.

It's hard to say but I'd say with 60% certainty that other her, the hair does look different but the face shape looks right.

I take it Terry wasn't there when they filmed ? [no Pearl you can't say that such cheek clearly it isn't Terry dressed up in the car with Mr Wainwright] he maybe could have identified if it was her or a crew member.

Hang on.
This is the pilot episode, isn't it?
If so, the location filming would have been done first, and the interior studio scenes done later.
So, I think either
1) The casting of Mrs Partridge hadn't fully been decided yet for speaking, interior scenes
or
2) There was a change in actresses between the location filming and the studio filming.

It doesn't look like Mrs Partridge to me. He also had a thing for Miss Moody. Maybe this was another woman he had on the side.

Is she wearing a hat? It's difficult to tell in the picture.

Oh didn't think of that but I don't think so.
Nothing left to do but watch again. Oh the sacrifices I make.

IIRC he had a thing for any woman working in the library!
