Hullo Janet. You should remember me and Sylvia, we worked on many films with you. You came for a workout once to Putney with a boy called David. You also knew my brother Bill.
I have just published a memoir. called My Life A Balancing Act.
You can get in touch if you wish.

That’s correct Norman. I left them as I had a bruised spinal chord. I did work with Cracked ribs and open sores on wrists and ankles, but the spinal chord was dangerous as I couldn’t feel the grips properly due to pins and kneedles in my hands. Anyway it was an experience.

The girl in the Dior Dancers was Merrion (not sure of the spelling) not Marion.
She married Bob Ganjou. Recently she was Queen Ratling for The Lady Ratlings.
Janet Grayson replaced her for a short time in the Dior Dancers when she was indisposed.

Hi Wayne. Ron Bone is alive and well and living in Sunbury on Thames. The Diors only did one Ed Sullivan Show. Flight Four did International Cabaret TV from the Talk of the Town and worked around the Continent and South Africa before he fell in love with a beautiful Austrian model girl Heide (sic) and bequeathed the act to his adagio partners and then he & Heide toured Europe from Hamburg to Rome and beyond to S. Africa again and the USA where Ron modelled as the sea captain for Phillip Morris cigarettes as the Merit Man for seven years. He believes the girl in the two man acro-adagio act on the Sullivan show could have been Margaret Thatcher before she went into politics ! Names of acts in those days which come to mind were Holgar and Delores, Halama & Konisky etc. Hello Maureen and Janet ! Who are you and still as lovely as ever ?

Sorry Wayne and Anon, I Don’t have video. I know they appeared on Sunday Night at the London Palladium. Would have been a year or so after the split with The Dior Dancers,which happened in 1967.
