The series followed the lives of the Bellamy family in Edwardian England - as well as the lives of their servants. It's set in a large townhouse at 165 Eaton Place in Belgravia between the years 1903 and 1930. It also shows the slow decline of the British aristocracy.
Upstairs, Downstairs was the idea by Jean and Eileen Atkins for a comedy titled Behind the Green Baize Door. It first focused on two housemaids, played by Jean and Eileen, in a large house in the Victoria era. They soon added the family upstairs.
In the series, Jean played the role of Rose Buck, the head parlour maid. Along with her work in Upstairs, Downstairs, she also co-created The ouse of Eliott.
Her film appearances include Cleopatra, Frenzy, The Eagle Has Landed, The Changeling, Return to Oz and Willow.
She is also known for three roles in long-running series Doctor Who, where she played Joan of England in The Crusade, she returned as Sara Kingdom the companion of the First Doctor and later played a villain opposite the Seventh Doctor.
During the 50s, Jean made many appearances on both American and British TV. She was in an episode of The Twilight Zone where she portrayed a lifelike robot. She was in The Moon and Sixpence opposite Laurence Olivier and Denholm Elliott.
Jean married Jon Pertwee, the Third Doctor in 1955 but the couple split in 1960.
