Patricia Driscoll

Patricia Driscoll (born 17 December 1927) is an Irish actress, who has appeared on both television and in films. She was born in Cork, Ireland.

From 1955 to 1957 Patricia introduced Picture Book, a BBC Television series that appeared on Mondays as part of the Watch with Mother cycle. The programme encouraged children to make things. She had a catch phrase: "Do you think you could do this? - I am sure you could if you tried." Driscoll left Picture Book in 1957 to play the part of Maid Marian with Richard Greene in the ITV series, The Adventures of Robin Hood.[1] Her place in Picture Book was taken by Vera McKechnie in a further series in 1962-63.

Driscoll was married to actor Duncan Lamont with whom she had two children.
