Biography

Primarily a stage actress, Alison Leggatt began her on-and-off film activities in the early '40s. One of her most fondly remembered screen roles was Aunt Sylvia in This Happy Breed (1945), Noel Coward's paean to working-class Londoners. She went on to play a variety of disapproving in-laws, landladies, and housekeepers; one of her last assignments was as Mrs. Hudson in the 1976 Sherlock Holmes opus The Seven Per Cent Solution. Alison Leggatt also appeared in such well-distributed 1970's TV productions as The Edwardians. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
