@@doubleghod NOT A DAME YET. Petula as being honered by HM with a CBE. However if anyone deserves a DAMEHOOD then surely it is Petula Clark. Her AMAZING career span and the indisputable mark she as made on the music-scene she as being a massive part of ABSOLUTELY must count for something. Her AMAZING recordings that have soared to the dizzy heights of Top Ten,while two have made Number One are superb. Her acting ability can never be called into question because she is a tremendously EXQUISITE actress who goes beyond the pale of superb drama and next minute laughter filled jollities. Starring in many films including family folklore escapades enriched melodrama of The Huggets and then came the two very extraordinary classic films. Finian's Rainbow 🌈 and Goodbye Mr Chips. After which came Petula's Stage Musical Career, yet another emence talent that this wonderful and stunningly petite and very beautiful lady can call upon from her vast array of qualities she as been so blessed with. I LOVE YOU PETULA.

This black Detroit 60's chick loved this petulia Clark song and still love it to this day. I remembered the Queen's guards dancing l loved it and finally found this video! I loved all the British invasion groups and when I got my first paycheck I went to England. I will never forget the humor and hospitality of the English people and along with Canadians and Texans they are my favorite people.
