She played LADY PENELOPE PEASOUP. That was villain number 32 at this site: https://www.handitv.com/lists/all-37-villains-from-the-batman-tv-series-ranked

Who can forget her role in “The Cabinet of Caligari”.

Skin and more skin. You see here, there is nothing that seems as it seems.

Wow. That's Angela Lansbury with them.

I could never stand Danny Kaye.

You can’t go wrong with Hammer Studios and Amicus Horror films. Many available for free via youtube.

Have you ever seen "Court Jester"?

If you haven't, perhaps this would be an occasion in which you actually like Danny Kaye.

I've seen other movies with him, and "Court Jester" is by far the best.

She was also on the cover of Zeppelin II, often mistaken as Carol Channing
