“... as Barbara Leslie found to her cost when she was ASM for a production of ‘The Barretts of Wimpole Street’, in which the character of Elizabeth has a spaniel called Flush. ‘As stage manager as well I had to borrow everything and I couldn’t borrow a spaniel to play Flush, I had to borrow a bloody great dog that could hardly go on the sofa! On the Saturday the owner was in the audience and Miles Rudge was playing the doctor, he was giving a touching performance at Elizabeth’s bedside and suddenly the dog recognized its owner, leapt over the footlights and into the stalls and Miles, playing an old man at the age of nineteen, suddenly became a very young man and leapt after him to bring him back.’”
