Miss Lemon outfits

Happy Birthday, Pauline Moran! (b. August 26 1947)

"There have been a lot of comments about the wonderful frocks I got to wear. We had a lot of very good costume supervisors and costume designers. Barbara Kronig was one of the original ones. She worked with the late Sheila Buckland who had an incredible store of vintage frocks, most of which I wore in the series. Sheila was very pleased with me because when the frocks were returned she always used to say she couldn't tell it had been worn. Because I really take care of costume, I'm very particular about that. Sheila was meticulous to a degree, she really was, and I've got the most wonderful shoes to wear as well. The production values were extremely high [on the series]." -- Pauline Moran on the costumes she wore as Miss Lemon, Fantom interview, May 2020

"[The hair curls] were stuck on. I've still got them in a box! But Brian Eastman, the producer, didn't like them, so he banned them after, I think, the second [season/series]. The first series he didn't like them at all. So, then it sort of shrunk to maybe one curl there or one here or going up that way. He wasn't having the curls at all. I quite liked them!" - Pauline Moran on the hairstyle she had as Miss Lemon, The Labours of Hercule interview, Dec 2023
