Joanna Hickson traces the career and the personality behind the three identities. With contributions from Sir John Gielgud, Gwen Ffrangcon Davies and Allan Massie.
'Mrs J' has debts of £9,000. She has unopened bills behind the clock in her flat. She's in tears. Tomorrow 'John's' gas, which he needs for cooking and heating, will be disconnected. He chain smokes in the waiting-room.
They have both come to their local Citizens Advice Bureau expecting immediate free advice. Six million enquiries were handled by the 910 bureaux in England and Wales last year.
