For much of 1948 Jacques continued to record episodes of "ITMA" for half the week, while spending evenings in the Players' Theatre; she also found time during the spring to record the role of Flora in "No, No, Nanette" for the BBC and appear at the Whitehall Theatre in "Bates Wharf" with the Under Thirty Theatre Group. Later that year she appeared as a singer at the Three Cripples tavern in the David Lean film "Oliver Twist". In September she started recording her second series of "ITMA"—the show's twelfth—before returning to the Players' for the Christmas pantomime, "The Sleeping Beauty in the Wood". In the latter performance, "The Times" commented that Jacques "must surely be among the funniest fairies" in her role as the Fairy Queen Antedota—which was one of her favourite parts.
