Petula Clark for Dame - Britmovie

Brief Encounter · 19-03-2007, 06:10 PM

Could you all please take a moment to look at this petition to award Petula Clark. She's been in the business since 1942, and still touring - surely that deserves some recognition to say the least.

We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to recommend a Damehood for Petula Clark - which is long overdue.

Great idea. I've signed
Then someone should do similar for a knighthood for Jack Cardiff

I've signed it - she's a national treasure. I think John Barry long over due for a knighthood.

I'm not sure if I fully support the honours system, but if we're going to have one then Pet should be created a Dame! Therefore I have signed the petition.

Hi, great work. I've signed up. I can't believe how often they neglect great performers who've been in the business for years and yet give them out, willy nilly, to the latest sporting hero. Must start somthing similar for June Whitfield - one of the great's of British comedy for over 50 years.

Hope you're well.

All best

Jack

Great idea. 928 sigs & 2 months to go!

Mark O · 17-01-2008, 06:15 PM

Yup, I've just signed also, being a lifelong fan!

I was fortunate enough to see her in Concert last Summer, absolutely brilliant!.........she sang 'La vie en rose', 'Tell me it's not true (Blood brothers), 'With one look' (Sunset Boulevard), and many, many more!

I absolutely adored Petula in 'Sunset Boulevard', saw it twice and loved every minute!.......I worship the song 'As if we never said Goodbye'!
