Pussus Galoria (Up Pompeii!)

Pussus Galoria (Patricia Haines 1932-1977) is the antagonist in the 1970 episode "Secret Agents Jamus Bondus" for the TV comedy series "Up Pompeii!".
In the episode, agent 007 has been transported back to the Roman empire to get the plans for a new weapon from senator Sextus through his slave Lurcio (Frankie Howard). However, Lurcio is not sure whether he can trust Jamus Bondus, and so he asks Ammonia (Elizabeth Larner), his master's wife, to seduce him and find out if he is trustworthy.
In the meantime, the evil bad girl, Pussus Galoria, who is an enemy secret agent, visits Lurcio and attempts to seduce him. She claims to Lurcio that she is an "expert in espionage, and in my field I stand out". With that comment, Lurcio begins staring at her cleavage and says "I don't dispute that".
Pussus spikes his wine with a drug, and he attempts to switch the drinks. However, she anticipated that switch, and he ends up drinking the drug and passes out. As a result, Pussus is able to obtain the secret plans.
When Lurcio awakens, he and Sen. Ludicrus Sextus (Wallas Eaton) find Jamus Bondus with a knife in his back, dead. Pussus is responsible for the murder and upon finishing her bath she enters the bedroom with the two men. She pulls out a hidden knife hidden within her hair brush and tries to stab them. However, she is startled by Nausius (Kerry Gardner) and is then overpowered by Lurcio. Ludicrus throws a cloth onto her head and she is knocked out while Lurcio removes the plans which she had placed in her ample cleavage.
It is assumed that she was arrested by the authorities off screen.
