Transcript of interview: 'They [parents] subscribed to magazines which I read. Picture Post was one. And the Illustrated London News and the Tatler and I used to chop them up when my parents had finished with them and cut out all the pictures of John Gielgud. The Women’s Journal was my mother’s favourite and I used to read the stories in that.'
