I thought Ping Pong was a pantomime character ? '' ...based on Margaret Landon's 1944 novel, Anna and the King of Siam (which, in turn, was based on real-life reminiscences). In 1862, Anna Leonowens, an independent-minded English school teacher, arrives in Bangkok to educate King Mongkut's small army of royal children. ...''

I had the full kit btw, black basque, fishnets, stillettoes (still got them actually), and me and my mate used to wear our Nurse's capes over the top coz we were a bit embarrassed! Liz

If I were a rich man da da da da da da da da da da da da da da daaaaa

Liz I so hope you are not trying to say I am a sweet thingy from Transylvania (lovey)

I am slightly bemused by the fact that we have Mary Poppins and Frank n Furter on the same thread lol

i had a serious crush on tim currie when he played the part in rocky horror and i have never known why!

Stay awake, don't rest your head Don't lie down upon your bed While the moon drifts in the skies Stay awake, don't close your eyes Though the world is fast asleep Though your pillow's soft and deep You're not sleepy as you seem Stay awake, don't nod and dream Stay awake, don't nod and dream Rosex

this seems to have turned into a Rocky Horror appreciation society thread lol

I love that song, Fitz ................. :-) If you don't have a dream da da da da da daaaa how you gonna have a dream come true ?

always made me giggle when Captain Sensible did a version of that song lol

Some enchanted evening You may see a stranger, you may see a stranger Across a crowded room And somehow you know, You know even then That somewhere you'll see her Again and again. Some enchanted evening Someone may be laughin', You may hear her laughin' Across a crowded room And night after night, As strange as it seems The sound of her laughter Will sing in your dreams. Who can explain it? Who can tell you why? Fools give you reasons, Wise men never try. Some enchanted evening When you find your true love, When you feel her call you Across a crowded room, Then fly to her side, And make her your own For all through your life you May dream all alone. Once you have found her, Never let her go. Once you have found her, Never let her go!

I love Oliver! Remember being taken to the pictures to see it - a birthday outing for a friend when I was, well, a lot younger! In fact I think I am the same age as Mark Lester, the boy who played Oliver. I love all the songs.

Nor me, Fitz. Was Nicholas Parsons in it at one time ?

I remember 'Oh Sweet Mystery of life now that I've found you' being used in the film Young Frankenstein

Happy talk, keep talkin' happy talk, Talk about things you'd like to do. You got to have a dream, If you don't have a dream, How you gonna have a dream come true? Talk about the moon floatin' in the sky Lookin' at a lily on the lake; Talk about a bird learnin' how to fly. Makin' all the music he can make. Happy talk, keep talkin' happy talk, Talk about things you'd like to do. You got to have a dream, If you don't have a dream, How you gonna have a dream come true? Talk about the sparrow lookin' like a toy Pickin' through the broaches of a tree; Talk about the girl, talk about the boy Countin' all the ripples on the sea. Happy talk, keep talkin' happy talk, Talk about things you'd like to do. You got to have a dream, If you don't have a dream How you gonna have a dream come true? Talk about the boy sayin' to the girl: 'Golly, baby, I'm a lucky cause.' Talk about the girl sayin' to the boy: 'You an' me is lucky to be us!' Happy talk, keep talkin' happy talk, Talk about things you'd like to do. You got to have a dream, If you don't have a dream How you gonna have a dream come true? If you don't talk happy, And you never have dream, Then you'll never have a dream come true!

I think that Oliver is one of my favourites - as a child I think my first crush was on Mark Lester.

But Carousel makes me cry EVERY time !
