Julie Andrews used to seem really old in Mary Poppins.

Now she looks young.

It is madness.

She was in her 20s.

Well, not quite so old these days.

# Ah, but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now.

Mick Brown of Pat and Mick "fame" was allegedly only 32 at the time. His awkward dad dancing made him seem so much older.

One and one make two if you're very lucky
Being a school mam
Two twos make four if I remember correctly
Being a school mam
Four fours make sixteen and sixteen's over age
Sixteen and sixteen makes thirty two
That's approaching middle age

Talking about the Stranglulators,

their first single in 1977



They still look old don't they?

The two on the right do.

Margo Ledbetter looks younger than Barbra Good now.




And s*xier.

But then, she always did.

I've always thought of Black Lace as being very much middle aged blokes, but looking beyond the 80s styling the one on the right actually looks quite young - maybe only in his late 20s!

Colin Gibb was born in December 1953, so he'd have been 29/30 when that photo was taken.

Richard Carpenter would likely have been in his late 20s when this photo was taken.

Shirley Valentine was only supposed to be 42 in the film - I thought she was like 60 or something.

I always mix her up with that Rita who got Educated.

The Richard Carpenter one is shocking. He looks a bit like John Major did during his PM days, but without the grey hair, and John Major in the 90's never seemed like a 20 something. I might go and listen to The Carpenters.

He looks like Richard Whitely.
