Forgive me if I'm wrong but I think Shirley Bassey is 77.

She's going to love you, dambuster!

thought the whole show was pretty good, agree Bette Midler & Shirley Bassey were the class acts.  the worst act on the show was Sarah Millican, how anybody can go and watch her in stand-up for over 2 hours I have no idea !

seen Miss Saigon 3 times - and they have really polished it up with this new production back in the West End, it is a brilliant show, but unfortunately didn't think it came over well last night with the 2 excerpts they performed.

Watched Imagine about Midler a couple of weeks ago. Wasn't a fan beforehand and nowt's changed but it was interesting enough.

Been a Shirley fan for years, the girl can sing, unlike the majority of today's female popsters.

A little know fact-Ms Midler and her friend Carole Bayer Sager wrote Your Movin Out Today. They couldn't decide which of them should release it as a single, so they both issued versions. Carole had the big hit and BM only just about troubled the charts. I remember seeing Carole singing it on Top of the Pops at a time when they had to perform live backed by the Top of the Pops Orchestra. The song was truly mangled-very little resemblance to the record.

I hope this snippet of pop history enhances the music knowledge of all you young whippersnappers who think you know what music quality is!

I think Bette Midlers  pianist was a certain Barry Manilow
And carol bayer sager was a backing singer for Max Bygraves
