Listen to the tape then answer this question. Who is only twenty-nine, and why is it so unclear?

    KATE: Can you recognize that woman,
     Liz?
    LIZ: I think I can, Kate.
     It must be Karen Marsh,
     the actress.
    KATE: I though so.
     Who's that beside her?
    LIZ: That must be Conrad Reeves.
    KATE: Conrad Reeves, the actor?
     It's can't be.
     Let me have another look.
     I think you're right!
     Isn't he her third husband?
    LIZ: No. He must be her fourth or
     fifth.
    KATE: Doesn't Karen Marsh look old!
    LIZ: She does, doesn't she!
     I read she's twenty-nine,
     but she must be at least forty.
    KATE: I'm sure she is.
    LIZ: She was a famous actress
     When I was still at school.
    KATE: That was a long time ago,
     wasn't it?
    LIZ: Not that long ago!
     I'm not more than twenty-nine
     myself.
