Edited sentence: Elizabeth Morton's portrayal of Madeline Bassett in series 3 and 4 of Granada Television's Jeeves and Wooster (1992-3), based on the novels of P.However, in retrospect, although the style and content of 48 were highly influential, Macdonald's solo contributions (sometimes joined by a small troupe of showgirls that included the actress Mary Maude, subsequently in Southern Television's Freewheelers) were in fact one its most distinctively memorable aspects.In between the longer sketches, and at the opening and closing of the show, she would present a short piece on the seemingly inexhaustible theme of her own loveliness.Macdonald's highly contrived caricature of a "dumb blonde", with her hair curved around almost to the edges of her lips, stood apart from the core of 48; she did not contribute to the sketches, nor is she credited with any of the writing of the show.She later returned to show business, taking part in a few nationwide tours, including that of a stage version (2003), starring Darren Day, of Cliff Richard’s 1962 musical film Summer Holiday, in which she played the mother of former Hear'Say singer Suzanne Shaw.The 48 Show was one of a number of productions with a predominantly male cast (in this instance, John Cleese, Tim Brooke-Taylor, Graham Chapman and Marty Feldman) whose origins lay in the Cambridge Footlights in the late 1950s and early 60s.The female star of Do Not Adjust Your Set was Denise Coffey.With Do Not Adjust Your Set, also created by Rediffusion, it was the precursor of Monty Python's Flying Circus, in which Carol Cleveland was, in her own words, the "blonde stooge", and, in many respects, the successor of the radio series I'm Sorry, I'll Read That Again, in which Jo Kendall had been the only woman.Wodehouse, appeared to have much in common with Macdonald's demeanour and delivery in 48
