This life of Queen Victoria with Claire Bloom was
my quick-change masterpiece. She began as the young princess, went
to 40, then 60, ended at 80. Ages 40 and 60 were done on Claire.
Age 80, shown here, was a double made up beforehand. Unfortunately
Claire forbade photos during rehearsal so I can only show you
pictures of the preparation of appliances.
