Hi Dottie, The roll I remember Herbert Lomm in was on the tv and, if I remember correctly, he played some sort of phyciatrist. Must ask my Mum as she recalls the oldies better than the presnt day!  :)

And who remembers Radio Luxembourg, used to be all part of our getting ready for the Saturday dance at the local ballroom, sitting in the bedroom, putting on the make up, (if you were a girl that is  ;)) and singing along to Bill Haley,Guy Mitchell, Elvis, etc., then off through  the wind and rain (if you lived up north like I did) to waltz, quick step, pally glide, etc.,   :)  those were the days!! :)

Listened all the time even when the signal went weak
do you remember this song
Tommy Steele's version of "Singing The Blues" made #1 in the UK Singles Chart for one week on 11 January 1957, sandwiched by two of the weeks that Guy Mitchell's version of the same song topped the charts

Al Hibbler was my man for that song.  I still have my diary from when I was 15, and I changed boyfriends every saturday night.   How fickle was I, but what fun..... :)

I have very happy memories of my younger sister dragging her beloved golly wog around every where she went and I can assure everyone that my sister is a very unracist person!  ;D
