Constance Cummings was probably best known for her work in the theatre and in the movies, but she did some TV work in the United Kingdom and here in the United States as well.

Cyrano de Bergerac (1938) (TV) .... Roxane
1938!!!
From what little I've read about the TV industry and its history in England, (mostly in the British Television: An Illustrated Guide), I've often wondered how far ahead they might have been had it not been for the interruption of WWII.
