We'll Meet Again goes to 55 in the singles chart as well.

MrWonderful 481 Posted June 18, 2020 A big hit for the DL, as this makes 3 of the top 5 and 4 of the top 7 who have died this year. And we're only in June. It's another hit on my Top 50 too, although picking someone 103 years old isn't exactly a brilliant pick. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Imelda 621 Posted June 18, 2020 She was conspicuously absent doing any live broadcast interviews during VE Day celebrations despite promises beforehand. I thought then she must be closer to the exit door than we'd imagined (I assumed she'd go on for at least another year before that) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
