Each year I convince myself that you’re beneath one of the costumes on The Masked Singer, but I’m proved hopelessly wrong! Has your drama school holiday job – wearing a Snoopy costume in Harrods’ linen department – put you off? VerulamiumParkRanger
I have been offered The Masked Singer, but it’s not something I want to do. It’s not because of Snoopy, although that wasn’t a great experience. The associate director at Rada [Royal Academy of Dramatic Art] was asked whether any of the students would be prepared to get into a Snoopy costume in the linen department during the Easter holidays. I don’t know why, but they asked me and I got the gig. I was at Rada with Imogen Stubbs, so she came into Harrods to see me. She looked at me and said: “Jane? Is that you inside that costume?” She was absolutely mortified. It was so hot in Harrods, and twice as hot inside the Snoopy outfit, but so cold outside that I ended up with glandular fever and missing half a term at Rada because of it.
