Vinegar Tits 606 Posted February 3, 2006 Fine dancer, good actress, decent journalist. And Eurovision presenter back in 1972. Guess where the UK finished that year? That's right. Second. AGAIN I actually thought she'd died years ago to be honest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canadian Paul 97 Posted February 3, 2006 Mussolini's son dies http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/4676934.stm Memoir should have been a dead giveaway. I'm surprised that since so many people on DDP are apt to pick obscure relatives of famous people that no one picked him. Albeit, I'm only not surprised in retrospect that he got a BBC obit.
