Summary
COI synopsis: The most famous Agony Aunt in the business - she gets a thousand letters a week - that’s how most of us think of Marjorie Proops. But apart from the expert advice she gives on personal problems, she has written over her long journalistic career on every possible social cause. This week Michele Brown meets her in her London home and finds out more about the woman behind the sympathetic smile of ‘Dear Marge’.
