Wonder how much these people had to practice this silly tongue twister before they could let it roll off their lips with such easy??? Thanks for the post. I enjoyed seeing young Petula.

She doesn’t look like Pet.

Thanks for posting..it’s good to see how she sang in her teens..Petula has always been a class act..glad she came to our country & we got to hear all those great songs..Downtown, My Love, I Couldn’t Live Without Your Love,etc…

I didn’t realise it was dubbed. I wouldn’t have thought there was much point, but if his voice was that bad…
A bad voice overdub …
A bad voice overdub for Jimmy Hanley, the driver!
why,fishy? is it …
why,fishy? is it because it shows a happy family
who obviously are enjoying themselves? maybe your nihilist worldview would be satisfied if they had a run-in with a bunch of desert dwelling cannibals.
Not to take away …
Not to take away from Pet, but Kathleen Harrison steals the show once again…
What an amazingly …
What an amazingly stupid thing to say. Probably the stupidist I’ve ever read on here.
I think it’s a lovely song, great fun. Thanks for posting it Shoemaker.
i hate this and …
i hate this and anyone who watches this
The Huggets Abroad, …
The Huggets Abroad, only used to watch those movies when they came on TV to see Pet. Has anyone else had such a long singing career that has been captured on media – well over 60 years by my calculations.
Thanks for these …
Thanks for these memories.I really enjoyed watching it.
Well, hardly an MTV …
Well, hardly an MTV video matrox, as this was from a feature film. But in fact, before they were making videos with singles on a regular basis, the BBC used to have to make some sort of a film for Top of the Pops here in the UK, as Petula was rarely in the country when her records were in the charts. I believe they did it for My Love and for Subway, possibly others too.
She was making MTV …
She was making MTV Videos back in the 40s, she was a real Pioneer.

lol ludwig…I felt like something was going to happen too with all of the camera shots at the dirt and tires!
I bought the series …
I bought the series on DVD of these movies, enjoyed them all. They were hard to find so I had to go through Amazon dot com
Recently got …
Recently got Petula’s album “It had to be you” and this song is on it. Magical
For any history …
For any history buffs-that truck is a CMP-canadian military pattern made in mass numbers for the war-some are still around, they are worth a fair bit for old trucks of their type. I heard she was a child star-nice to see this old stuff, thanks for posting it!!
I keep waiting for …
I keep waiting for a monster to pop out of the bushes and eat them !! LOL !! Great find !
Yes 789746, and on …
Yes 789746, and on through Don’t Sleep in the Subway, Du bist fur mich eine Mann, Destiny, right up to Driven by Emotion, her latest single. Magical woman. You’re right Shoemaker, you can tell she was gonna be something, even back then… but who would have guess SOOOO big
From ‘Doodle-Oodle’ …
From ‘Doodle-Oodle’ to ‘Downtown’ she’s always De-Lightful, De-Licious and De-Lovely
I bet she didn’t …
I bet she didn’t think she would be! And you can see that she’s a great performer even there. LOL yeah let’s request it.
Oh wow. classic!!! …
Oh wow. classic!!! awesome!!! It’s almost impossible to imagine that 50+ years on she’d still be singing her songs… not that she’d sing this one I guess. Maybe we should request it for her big London concert in November. Whatcha think? Brilliant Shoemaker. Thanks for sharing.
