Re: Teddy Johnson and Pearl Carr

When you click on the link to the photograph it shows the picture you have seen - if you look above picture there is a rectangular box you can enter names in. Just put the name in there e.g. Ruby Murray etc. Hope that helps. Whilst you are on the internet you might like to see this clip from 1960 wh...

Re: Teddy Johnson and Pearl Carr

If you put Ruby Murray into the 'search' box on the site there are dozens of photos of her. Presumably we have them?

Teddy Johnson and Pearl Carr

I came across an article a while back about Teddy Johnson and Pearl Carr whom I recall from childhood memories in the late 50s/early 60s and wondered did Bernie and Ruby ever meet them. Both Teddy and Pearl are still with us being 95 and 92 having been married since 1955.

Re: Greetings to Ruby's Friends/Fans

Happy New Year to all. It would be nice if the media realised the potential of Ruby's story and did a documentary or something in 2016. The backdrop of the 50s would make it really interesting.

Re: Ruby's birthday celebration on the radio.

Bernie...have you ever thought of asking Nick if he would be interested in him having you on his show to talk about Ruby..he is contactable via the Bay FM website.

Re: A couple of photos

Looking at the photos of Ruby and Jean the word that springs to mind is 'elegance'....as someone who grew up in the 60s with only hazy memories of the 50s it strikes me that as with all 'progress' there are gains and losses. Elegance seems to have all but vanished.
