    And THAT ladies and gentlemen is how it's done....and why Sondheim said he would always cast an actor over a singer. Oh my word, I've never heard Glynis Johns sing this before, brought a tear to my eye, (although my brain is having terrible trouble reconciling this performance with the image of Mrs Banks!!)

    I was a guide in a stately home in the mid 70's age 16 and was told at the end of the afternoon that Glynis Johns had been through that day and I remembered talking to a very kind and lovely lady and realised with hindsight that it was GJ - beautiful performance.

    This is a magical scene...great actors...you have to know how to act to put over a Sondheim song.

    This was written by Sondheim especially for her - he loved her voice. Only matched for emotional performance by Judi Dench

    Glynis Johns had a varied career, a great performer. Wish they would show some of her other films including `Miranda`

    Glynnis Johns, such a pro; and a decidedly sensual actress in her day!

    I saw Glynis Johns sing "Send in the Clowns" on the Parkinson show way back when.She had tears trickling down her cheeks, so did I.Here they are again.No fool like an old fool.
