Mrs Patrick Campbell was one of the grandest of Britain’s grandes dames of the theatre. G.B. Shaw wrote the role of Eliza Doolittle in Pygmalion for her. A devoted dog lover, she brooked no interference or criticism about taking one or two of her pets everywhere with her. On one occasion, clutching her pet while exiting a London taxi, she was confronted by the irate driver who complained that her dog had ‘lost control’ and left a mess. Mrs Campbell drew herself up, looked him in the eye and said firmly: ‘I did it.’ She then swept away.

On another occasion, while en route to perform in America, Mrs Campbell tried smuggling her dog through Customs by enfolding him inside the lavishly swathed cape she was wearing. ‘Everything was going splendidly,’ she later recounted, ‘until my bosom barked.’
