My mum and dad were big fans I think I was a bit young to be bothered but occasionally her songs pop up on the radio and I think of my mum and dad. Thank you for that as always ❤❤❤

I was born in 57 so I was very young when Kathy was at the height of her fame but I remember very clearly as a young lad how beautiful she was, I realise now she was my first love 😆 rest in peace Kathy beautiful lady you deserved better

Yet another great biography. I am glad there is a channel devoted to the stars of a great period in music.

As a teenager I was mesmerised by Kathy, she was beautiful and her voice was tremendous. A real star, in every sense of the word.

Loved Kathy Kirby. Secret Love was one of my favourite all time songs.

Kathy really was a huge star on TV & in early pop music. I can remember seeint her on TV shows she was so beautiful & very glamorous!! A very good but sadly underrated singer.

One of the very finest to come from the UK. Great voice, great hour glass figure, great looks and a beautiful personality, sadly let down by so many that supposedly loved her.

I met Kathy under a stressful situation. As a steeplejack, I had the job of erecting a tall chimney at the Mansions she was living. This entailed a lot of shouting from the ground to the roof
and we started work early morning. One day I shouted up to my mate and I had to duck a flying wine bottle hurled from the top floor followed by a torrent of expletives. It was Kathy
screaming for me to shut up. "I need some sleep" she screamed. Not wanting to upset a lady I admired so much I went out the following day and purchased some walkie talkies
so we didn't need to shout anymore. I'm glad I did. A couple of days later, I found out that the notorious gangster Jack Spot lived there as well and it would have been more than wine bottles coming my way! Tom

Thank you (once again) H & H L, for this sojourn down Memory Lane.

As a young teenager at the time, Kathy caught my innocent wee heart (not in 'that way'!), with her dynamic voice and personality.

*Rest In Peace, K!* 💚

Stay free. Rab 🍻😎 🕊 👋 🎄

Sang "Secret Love" and had a powerful voice.

Ohhhh I remember her! She was such a lovely lady. I was going to say how much her clothing was like Marilyn Monroe’s, she knew what suited her. Jimmy Page certainly got around as a session musician didn’t he! Wonderful work, thank you my friend.
P.S. I’m one practical assignment away from finishing this counselling course! Catching up with your videos at the weekend is a real treat for me, you always bring something fresh and thoughtful to us. Thank you!🤗
