Daytime Emmy Awards Fug Carpet: Lesley-Anne Down

It seems Lesley-Anne Down is using a headband to hide her weirdly delineated hair.

Fortunately, though, she is not hiding her Crazy.

She looks like she’s posing for Mrs. Peacock on a new set of Clue cards. Parenthetically, I never did understand why Mrs. Peacock in the movie wore orange, because peacock generally refers to a shade of blue, yet Eileen Brennan was decked out in fall-foliage colors. Not that I would ever, EVER question that movie, because it is perfection. But I approve of this as a secondary option: It’s costumey, it includes a purse that could conceal a gun one might use to shoot a singing-telegram girl, the gloves would leave no fingerprints, and all that ruching might ably hide the contours of a sinister wrench stuffed in a lady’s underclothing. So, you know: Everything a girl needs for a rainy night out on the town in a mysterious house.
