Julian Ovenden

[Marian]

Did anyone else see Julian Ovenden the other day on Breakfast, singing a song from his new album. He mentioned Matt Monro as one of the singers he admired, and I wondered if he might a good choice to play Matt in a film of the book! He's done quite a lot of acting too, and is most known for Foyle's War.

Marian the name rings a bell and I always watched Foyles War, what part did he p lay in that? Anyway I did a google search and heard him sing, very impressed I may just treat myself to his cd!

[Marian]

He played Andrew Foyle, who I think was Christopher Foyle's son Karl. I think I'll buy the CD too, but it's quite expensive though. The cheapest I've found in Play.com is £9.99

Marian, I did see Julian Ovenden mention Matt on Breakfast Time.
He sang songs and duets from Oklahoma on the BBC Proms 1910. A real professional . and Noah Stewart also...a lovely voice.
So good to know that decent songs and singers are surviving amid the rubbish singers around today.

So True Lena!

I got Julian Ovenden's CD on ebay for £7.49 with free postage.
