Move Over Darling
.http://youtu.be/NxAjIqKbeDg

She was great in 'The Man Who Knew Too Much'.

Move Over Darling is utterly filthy, but a great song MD.

Great actress, EK, superlative singer and has looked after so many neglected animals.

she's ok but no Grace Kelly

Not quite as stunning but bigger knockers.

EvgenyKissin, The Man Who Knew Too Much is on BBC2 right now.

How spooky is that?

I think we have had this discussion before, Kenny, about the lyrics to Move Over Darling.

Kenny!

no Ladycakes

What I meant to say is that she has her knockers but I love her.

you are a sick boy Capt

Kenny

I remember being taken to see Calamity Jane when I was very small. Apparently I enjoyed it so much I DEMANDED to be taken again, and got my wish twice over to keep me quiet.

Look at the versatility in this performance, and all done in one take.

Knockers much smaller there, must have been a late blossomer.

I've never seen that, Kenny. That was brilliant!

The whole film is MD. Some incredibly catchy songs in it.

Listen to this a couple of times, and I guarantee you'll be humming it for a week.

You're a man of good taste Kenny. There are some great songs from "Calamity Jane".

It was "Calamity jane", and "Hans Christian Andersen", with Danny Kaye that enthralled me as a nipper, Foinavon.

"she's ok but no Grace Kelly"
Much more talented than Grace Kelly.Terrific singer.Great actress.Superb dancer.

I was actually comparing their looks rather than abilities which is more important

It was Doris's son that Charlie Manson wanted killed, luckily
for him he had moved house.

Manson was influenced by Helter Skelter, of course.

Paul and Doris are good friends.

Que Sera Sera.

Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps my Mrs loves the song.  www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUVT1NZtZPo

The only talent she didn't have was in selecting the right man,  she chose  some real rogues

Hi KK, hope you're well. That's a terrific song which I haven't heard for a long time.

EvgenyKissin, The Man Who Knew Too Much is on BBC2 right now.


Interesting fact about that film, MD. Doris speaking with Paul McCartney

DD You’re so right. Mine are so sweet. I love helping horses, dogs, every animal.
PM And is it true that on the set of The Man Who Knew Too Much, you demanded from Alfred Hitchcock that the animals on set should be better cared for?
DD I did. Because they weren’t being looked after. They were being used. So I spoke with Hitch about it and he agreed and then they were treated beautifully.
PM And now at the end of every film, there’s a statement saying no animals were harmed making this movie. So you were a pioneer in that, Doris.
DD That’s the way I feel. I just love animals, babies and music.

her mother must have been a stunner because Doris didn't get her looks from her dad Sir Robin

That's nice, Kenny.

KM I heard it recently but not by Doris Day. Tenuous link here but I was when I was watching an old favourite episode of Coupling (link is that the episode was titled the girl with two breasts)

When does the song come on, Lee? It's half an hour long.

It's at the end with the credits

Thanks for telling me lol, I'm going in again

It was Mari Wilson singing that, very catchy song.

Yes & Mari Wilson was playong in Otley a couple of weeks ago

Funnily enough I was in th Black Bull in Otley recently.

That was the tune 2 way Family Favourites used.

Successor to the wartime show Forces Favourites, Family Favourites (much better remembered by its later name Two-Way Family Favourites) was broadcast at Sunday lunchtimes on the BBC Light Programme, BBC Radio 2 and the British Forces Broadcasting Service until 1980. It was a request programme designed to link families at home in the UK with British Forces serving in West Germany or elsewhere overseas. It was a big success.

It had the memorable signature tune With A Song in My Heart (original played by Andre Kostelanetz and his Orchestra) and was presented by a variety of well-known radio personalities including Cliff Michelmore, Jean Metcalfe,[1] Bill Crozier in Cologne, Michael Aspel, Judith Chalmers[2] and Sarah Kennedy. The final UK presenter was Jean Challis.

When it expanded it encompassed far flung corners of the Commonwealth with, amongst others, Bill Paull being the memorable link man in Toronto, June Armstrong-Wright from Hong Kong, Ross Symonds from Australia and Marama Martin from New Zealand.

I'm fine Canny, ta for asking. Just got back from Ponty racecourse had a drive over and walked the dog. It will pretty quick ground there tommorow even with the watering.

Very windy and bright susnshine just now.

I had planned Sunday lunch at the Town Hall Tavern ( highly recommended) but didn't get round to it.
