I was sorry to hear of the death of Doris Day (97) today. Drop-dead gorgeous in her prime, a talented comic actress, and a wonderful singer. I recently started subscribing to Amazon Unlimited (50+ million tracks for streaming), they have some wonderful compilations of Doris Day songs. Will we ever see her like again? Or are we doomed to suffer BBC-approved “comedians” such as Kate Smurthwaite and Zoe Lyons for years to come?
