I think Petula may have a previous thread--but I could not find it.

I do not usually read a paper, but I saw one yesterday-and it said that Petula is 79 years old [as of yesterday]--Can this be true ???

It does not seem that long ago, that I was watching her as a young actress in The "Huggett" films, and starting her singing career, with songs like "The Little Shoemaker " !!!

Yes, it is hard to believe that she is 79, Marian, she was born in 1932. Been performing for about 70 years too, incredible.

It certainly is hard to believe that Petula Clark is 79. A wonderful career as a singer and actress, and if my memory serves me well I'm sure there was a call for her to be recognised as a Dame a few years ago. About time it happened. !!!!

I would love to see Petula as a Dame-she does really deserve it.

Wow she's 79 and still going. My Mom is a major fan and she's 78. My folks always play her records from time to time and I find myself singing along. I love Petula also!!
