# Quote 1 [asked if she owns a piece of Upstairs, Downstairs (1971)] I get a residual for the idea as much as I get a residual for the acting. It's a very low fee. I think I got something like $100 an episode initially for the idea, and my royalty is based on that rate. I've got a saying: "If it had been made in America I'd be Mary Tyler Moore. As it is, I'm Mary Tyler Less." 2 [on Downton Abbey (2010)] I think we were all surprised. The new Upstairs, Downstairs had been in the works for about three years. We were trying to sort out... 40 years of rights and then it also started - Downton Abbey - in the Edwardian era, which Upstairs, Downstairs did. So it might be a coincidence and I might be the queen of Belgium.

She portrayed the short-lived companion Sara Kingdom from December 1965 to January 1966 in the William Hartnell serial "The Daleks' Master Plan". Prior to the series' creation, she was married to Jon Pertwee from 1955 to 1960, who later played the Third Doctor on the series. 8 Voted for best actress for Battlefield by Readers of Doctor Who Magazine. 9 Co-created (with actress Eileen Atkins ), her most memorable series Upstairs, Downstairs (1971) which ran from 1971 to 1975.
