While watching Murder can be Hazardous to your Health this afternoon it occured to me how close we ever came to meeting Mrs Columbo. In the scene at the Policeman's Ball where Colmbo is in Tux, he asks if Wade Anders would sign an autograph for his wife (so clearly she was there!) however as usual, she's wandered off... Perhaps we were less than a few seconds from her stage presence!! I wonder how many other scenes we came so close to meeting the illusive Mrs Columbo?
