The story I remember is that at the time she worked for Mars (developing the Mars ice cream), so one of the tabloids had the headline:

No, that was "Foot heads arms body", when Michael Foot became the chair of CND.

TBF, that pun was to good to pass up. Although (after looking up the CND) "Foot heads no-arms body" would have been more correct (and maybe even funnier, depending on your sense of humour)...
