ACTRESS’S HOBBY
A rather unusual hobby for an actress is that of Barbara Gott, who plays the sinister landlady in the London thriller, “The Crooked Billet.” She is a keen Egyptologist, and her flat contains numerous specimens and examples of her interest in the period. One room is furnished entirely with copies of Egyptian craftsmanship—-
mostly fashioned by herself. The divan is a replica of the couch in the Tutankhamen tomb, and the walls have an Egyptian frieze from The Book of the Dead, worked by Miss Gott in wool.
