Subject: RE: Nina and Frederik From: Joan from Wigan Date: 02 Jul 09 - 12:47 AM It was Thank Your Lucky Stars - see the post above dated 08 Jan 08 - 12:32 PM from GUEST,Bobby Bob, Ellan Vannin. Joan |
Subject: RE: Nina and Frederik From: Cretzon Date: 02 Jul 09 - 06:32 AM Janice Nichols (Oi'll Give It Foive) was Thank Your Lucky Stars, alright. Brian Matthew - SOTS on Saturday morning - still occasionally refers to it. She released a song of the catch phrase (same title) in the mid sixties. A bit grim, even by 60's novelty record standards. |
Subject: RE: Nina and Frederik From: Cretzon Date: 02 Jul 09 - 06:36 AM Sorry - I forgot the reason I posted on here. Nina & Frederik guested on Juke Box Jury from time to time. I remember them; there's a clip on a nostalgic TV show I've got where they were on the same show as David McCallum and Jill Ireland. They had some strange choices on that show now and then. |
Subject: RE: Nina and Frederik From: GUEST,Cliff (in France) Date: 04 Jul 09 - 04:15 AM 1961 on Brit TV they did their over sad sounding 'Come buy me mangoes' with her - a striking real blond (I suppose) - stupidly made up (typical BBC incompetence)'coloured'. Did not much help their image in the UK. OK I still remember them that surprising line 'its wings like parentheses (high?) in the sky |
Subject: RE: Nina and Frederik From: GUEST,Kevin Kevany Date: 28 Sep 10 - 05:02 PM Does anyone know the name of the South African enfant terrible of the theatre, who was briefly married to Nina and what has become of him? |
Subject: RE: Nina and Frederik From: TRUBRIT Date: 28 Sep 10 - 09:39 PM never heard of him but curious to know. |
Subject: RE: Nina and Frederik From: GUEST,Patsy Date: 29 Sep 10 - 08:22 AM I remember back in black and white mists of childhood memory it was either Sunday Night at the London Palladium or it was another Royal Variety Performance where Nina and Frederik did send up of 'Baby it's Cold Outside' singing it in the way it would be sung in the stereotype character of different countries. Frederik did a perfect send up of a reserved English gentleman and it is the one and only time that he ever made me giggle. |
Subject: RE: Nina and Frederik From: GUEST,Hibernian Date: 06 Nov 10 - 12:10 PM This thread appears old, but if anyone is still there, I'm trying to work out the second chord in the melody of 'Listen to the Ocean'. I can get away with a 7th, but has anyone got the proper sequence? |

Subject: RE: Nina and Frederik From: keberoxu Date: 23 Feb 20 - 12:44 PM Apparently Nina van Pallandt is still alive someplace -- she will be over eighty years old by now. I saw the two of them on television in my childhood. Frederik did the singing on the chosen song, Nina harmonized, and it was an odd little cabaret piece with no rhyming whatsoever in the lyrics. The first word was "follow" but it was quite an aimless lyric. Negligible tune as well. Weird. Really a forgettable little bit of writing, but the two of them were so good that I can't forget the performance. |
Subject: RE: Nina and Frederik From: GUEST Date: 23 Feb 20 - 09:21 PM GUEST,Kevin Kevany asked nearly 10 years ago: Probably refers to Robert Kirby, died 2007. A man with some fairly dodgy leanings apparently, but maybe of his time..... |
Subject: RE: Nina and Frederik From: Roger the Skiffler Date: 24 Feb 20 - 04:45 AM According to Wikipedia she was born in 1932 and included Clifford Irving as one of her later lovers. RtS |
