Why can't we have Lily Elsie singing this? Answer - cinema cameras weren't invented in 1907? Well that's a good enough reason. I can'tundertstand a single word Lizzie's singing, but it sounds wunderbar (wonderful!)

He has a great voice - but why can't he sing it in English for once, so we can all understand it? I know that the composer was from Austria or Germany, but it would be so nice to be able to understand what they were singing about without having to do a degree in german. You could say that love ha...

Lizzy Schwarzkopf is a great singer! But Lily Elsie could have knocked her for six and had every man swooning in their seats...all hopelessly in love...and they would have actually gone home understanding what she was singing!! Never-the-less, a great performance by Lizzie!

Noel Coward (I have omitted the dialesis) wrote some great songs, But he was a snob. He said the Beatles were 'talentless' for example. In all his films, such as the Cruel Sea, he portayed the England we'd all rarther forget; class-ridden, working-class-bashing and embarrassing!

How nice to see little Danmark represented. Not too sure what they had got to do with Russia - were they at Waterloo? But nice to see them there still the same! They almost look like British guards regiments? I would be so proud of them if I were Danish! Denmark is such a lovely little country!
