Gracie Fields 'Shipyard Sally' The Jitterbugs

Gracie as 'Sally Fitzgerald' has got to see Lord Randall to tell him about the plight of the workers on Clydebank and give him their petition. To do this, Sally and her father gatecrash a party to celebrate Lord Randall's birthday. Masquerading as American singing star 'Linda Marsh', she sings a jazz song 'The Jitterbugs' very zany and slightly risque for the time.

The clips are from old VHS tapes recorded many years ago. You can get a nice boxed set from Amazon, just search for Gracie Fields.
