In the heat of auction, Imelda Murphy, right, broke her budget but scored some lace-trimmed sleepwear, once worn by England's Queen Victoria.
Without it, her recently penned play, "The Quane's Laundry," would just be another work of historical fiction about royal bloomers and the fallen women who washed them.

Congrats Immelda ....You have captured the zeigeist of the era and written a beautiful and historically accurate play that captures the royalty and the working classes in some detail with a mystery to boot. Brilliant.
