Gale Storm spoke at the church my family and I attended in the late 1950s (I'm old!) and I remember that she had everything laughing hysterically! She was so amusing and we loved her...
Gale Storm was quite elegant and sophisticated.
Gale is was such a piece of work. Beautiful, funny, talented and such a personality. As a youngster I was a big fan of "My Little Margie" a really well written and amusing comedy.
My little Margie was a favorite of mine also.
The Amish Umpire Mine too, I loved her in My Little Margie and again in Oh Susanna. One of my first crushes on film and I was only in the single digits then.
bill ding Lovely talented woman.
Mine too! I was totally awed when I got to actually know her. I just loved her and she treated us all as if she loved us. Knowing her as a most genuine person, we knew she loved us. Awesome!
I was a fan of The Gale Storm Show, in which she worked aboard a cruise ship. Also loved "It Happened on Fifth Avenue."
Arlene was so witty. She had great one-liners.
Bob Monkhouse is a legend - when presenting game shows, if he thought the prizes were a bit cheap, he used to pay for something better for the contestants. Great to see him here charming everyone as usual :)
Aww! I’m going to have to look him up. He seemed like a very nice person.
I thought he was creepy.
@@caraevans2609 Bob Monkhouse was one of the biggest stars on British TV. A brilliant stand up comedian, he was the host of many game shows.
A few years after his death in 2003, he made an advert about the cancer that killed him; in reality, they re-edited footage of him and got a voiceover from someone whose act is an uncanny impersonation of him.
I remember him doing that on celebrity squares when he failed to get a little boy a bike - he was nearly in tears.
Not long before his passing, Bob Monkhouse was feted by his peers on British show business.
His comment on that occasion:
"When I told people that I was going to be a comedian, they'd laugh at me.
Well, they're not laughing now!"
I loved Gale Storm’s squeaky voice. It drove them mad, especially Arlene. She even used her real voice & still didn’t know. This is one of my favorite episodes, I love it when they can’t guess correctly! Ann Sheridan was a great one too!!
Gale's falsetto was ribtickling!
My wife attended the same Church as Gale Storm for many years. Miss Storm played the piano and sang at our wedding. She was very gracious and welcoming.
My Mother was supposed to play the piano, but she was a bit rusty. Gale generously "offered to assist", in other words, she took over. :)
In case anyone is interested, the date of my wedding was 8-8-88 @8 pm
ImaginePuppies Breath how lucky !! I love her !
I sang with her several Christmases in a row in the eighties. She was so delightful, so warm, and so talented. I will always cherish knowing her. I miss her.
@@magnificentfailure2390 The number right is very lucky in China! Didn't the Olympic games start on that day??
What a Great story!
For me, Gale Storm was one of the greatest beauties in the entertainment business!.
I've always found her just "Gorgeous!"...and, she comes across as a wonderful human being!...
It's interesting to see these people again from this perspective, at 62, confirming what I was drawn to as a toddler… her heart.
She was. Just a lovely lady. She was generous of spirit to everyone, even a nobody like me.
@@cynthiat6505 no one is a nobody.
Gale Storm's hair accented her features so well. Loved her voice.
Amazing. "My Little Margie" still airs today on some of the channels I have. Saw it first run back in the day. Today when I watch it and then when the show is over and the theme music is playing, sometimes there's an ache and sadness for the long ago.
Ditto!
John Lorrell (1917-2001). England's top male model during the 1950's. He also had bit parts in a couple of British films.
Quite a handsome guy!
Very belated thank-you for your info...I could not find any details on when he died etc online 👍🎩
Such a pleasure to watch this show.
I agree 100 per cent !!
Lovely to see Bob Monkhouse as a young man. I grew up watching his shows in England. Happy memories of a lovely man.
Now is the time when we should mention again how beautiful Arlene Francis is.
Arlene Francis is beautiful.
hopicard She was indeed.
+John Tomasello That too, very much so.
She's a glitter on the panel. .
+Jason Wilson THE Glitter.
Always loved Gale Storm. Watched 'My Little Margie' and 'Oh! Susanna' as a kid when they were reruns. Just recently became familiar with her lovely voice. Her rendition of 'Dark Moon' is haunting. Thanks for posting!
"I Hear You Knockin'" also in something like 1957.
Sometimes i wish some of the people that were in the studio audience were still alive so they could tell us what it was like to be in that theatre during a broadcast of the show
If there were any audience members under the age of 30, there is a fair chance that some of them are still alive.
What sort of responses would you be expecting? Audience members are in individual seats, are cued on when to applaud, while watching along with the rest of us. (?!?)
Bob was one of the UKs top comedians, gameshow hosts and amassed a huge film and tv collection including many 'lost' programmes, Wonderful to see him at the start of his amazing career. A national treasure he sadly died in 2003
Such fun! Nice to watch this and great a break from this crazy world!
GALE: Oh, Arlene!
ARLENE: Oh, it's someone I know!
GALE: No, I'm just friendly.
I loved that! -- partially because it was just so charming, and partly because I think that's the way anyone who has watched this show often enough feels about Arlene. Even though she doesn't know us, we feel as if we know her. :)
+SaveThe TPC Time 21:17
Johan Bengtsson Thanks for supplying the time signature, Johan! I hadn't seen this in a long time, and it was great to be able to watch the part I'd commented on again! I'm sure it will also be helpful to others who read my post. :)
+SaveThe TPC My pleasure! It can be difficult to write comments without time signatures and it's more fun when you actually can listen to the remarks yourself. :)
Johan Bengtsson Agreed! I'm not sure if I was just being lazy that day or if I didn't quite get the idea of time signatures yet, but I'm glad you added it in. :) Btw, it's good to "see" you! Are you re-watching episodes you've seen before, or is this what you're up to chronologically now? I seem to remember that you may have started watching these episodes later than I did, but we've had so many interactions here on YT that I'd thought we were probably watching the same episodes around the same time, and I had caught up to Gary's posting schedule last summer, I think. --Or was it the summer before? It's all a blur already, but I think I started watching the WML channel around February of 2014.
Johan Bengtsson P.S. I just checked and see that: 1) indeed you have watched through to the last episode, as have I, and 2) Gary posted the last episode in March of 2015, so that means I must have caught up the previous summer -- towards the end of the summer, I think. But maybe you had started in the middle and are now working your way back from the beginning?
Despite her tendency to show off at times, I really do enjoy Dorothy, and the show just wasn't the same without her.
I liked her right away...was shocked to see where's she might have been murdered for her investigation into the JFK assasination...ugghh !
@@blueforest2927 That was NEVER properly investigated! Don't get me started....
@@geraldineclarke5434 and Blue Forest, yes, Dorothy's whole death "investigation" was blatantly compromised. Some people will always ignore even numerous "coincidental" facts. RIP DK
Thanks to JFKs killers for her being too nosy
Sharon Lashen (wrestler) is now 77 and still lives in Wisconsin
If that's the correct Sharon Laschen that would have made her awfully young at the time of this taping. About 17 or 18 years old.
She became the wife of Chicago wresting promoter Bob Luce.
Female wrestlers were much more elegant then today thats for sure..
Always such a classy & fun show.
A side note, at 7:05 Monkhouse mentions a Mike Todd Party at MSG. It was a decadent affair that turned into a giant food fight live on national television. Walter Cronkite called it one of the most disastrous things he has ever been part of.
Bob Monkhouse was a real legend in the UK! Known mostly for his hosting of many classic game shows, and also a couple of Carry On films. A very clever man also, he was known to be able to make a joke on any subject the audience gave him. He also had one of the biggest private archives of tv recording ever!
Interesting man, and so nice to see him so young and on my new favourite game show (thanks to this channel!).
Leg-end. Insufferable with all the smarminess.
This has to be my favorite episode to date! All the contestants were so interesting, to me at least. Gale Storm was quite a beauty, and I enjoyed the banter between Monkhouse & the Lady Wrestler (I thought it was cute.)
It was a little over the top. Of course this was 1957, but from what I've been seeing in the news of late, women don't find that behaviour very nice.
Richard Wielgosz Well, I was going to say that such comments were more acceptable back then, but the way Mr Daly chastised Bob @4.30 (“that question was out of order sir”) shows that it was clearly considered inappropriate even by other men.
@@lindashelley3635 The 4:30 part was mildly inappropriate; look at the smile on Daly's face as he issues the admonishment. He is clearly taking Bob's comment in good humour.
However, compare that to Daly's reaction to Bob's question at 19:08. Daly is clearly baffled. I think at that point, Bob was so lost that he was trying to make a witty remark instead of a question (as he acknowledged himself in later years, he was never any good at improvisation but was a master at delivering crafted jokes).
@@Wizardofgosz It was creepy to say the least!! It's something that former panelist, Harold Block would say!!
I came here thinking It couldn't possibly be THAT Bob Monkhouse, but it is!. He was close buddies with Benny Hill and had a huge collection of rare films and tv shows.
Among other kinds of films!
goodiesguy Not to mention his famous joke books (that once got stolen).
His autobiography is, let’s say he has a lot of good stories.
He had a great show in the 60's about {those} movies.
I adore Benny Hill
Damn, Dorothy zeroed in on that wrestler like a guided missile.
I read a transcript from Columbia University where Bennett Cerf said Dorothy took this game very seriously and wanted to win every time.
Watching Ms. Storm in “It Happened On Fifth Avenue” and arrived here while on a web search. Beautiful and wonderful person, actress and singer.
it's amazing that there is NOTHING about John Lorrell online. No biography. Just one sentence in imdb.
Arlene was adorable and smart, too. However, Dorothy Kilgallen was brilliant!! She actually was gifted. She was attractive and her clothes were beautiful. Unfortunately, there are some men who still don't appreciate intelligent women. Maybe threatened by them?
Dorothy made some very sarcastic remarks about a Country Western singer (Patsy Cline) not all that becoming on her part.
Yes DK was very smart. I think it irked Bennett Cerf who seemed to avoid acknowledging her.
Except for the reference to attractiveness, which I take to refer to physical attractiveness, the encomium is deserved.
@@igkoigko9950
She was attractive.
Watch yourself.
Women ALWAYS think or insinuate that men are “threatened” or “intimidated” by their intelligence and other things. I’ve got a secret for you ladies…..men are not the least bit threatened by anything to do with a woman’s intelligence, success or anything else. You take the fact that we don’t care as us being threatened. We care much more about your appearance and personality than anything else. The narrative that you paint has gotten extremely old. Maybe that’s the men YOU attract.
Wow, I had no idea Bob Monkhouse used to be so handsome. I'd only ever saw him on TV as an elderly man when I was a child. Very cool to see him on here.
What a "sweetheart" Gale Storm was.
Amen to that !! :-)
She's Lovely in the Movie "The Abandoned" 1949 .
What a name.
Sharon Lashen (who's fairly shy here) mostly wrestled as Sharon Lass, and mostly in the mid-to-late 50s. She married promoter Bob Luce (who was based in Chicago), and seems to have retired, for the most part, though she shows up in a few 60s matches. Luce died in 2007. (Also, Bennett explaining battle royal rules amuses me no end.)
I see some folks find Monkhouse slimy. On my end, he's not nearly as slimy as some, and he's effectively amusing in a not-very-aggressive sort of way.
ruclips.net/video/bj9LNYoVoYw/видео.html
Monkhouse was a little slimy IRL. Have you read about his escapades?
Had to laugh at the name Robert Monkhouse . No one ever called him that in the UK, he was always known as Bob .
paacer I admit that was the reason I came to this video. I never really liked him all that much, but I was curious to see if it was him or perhaps an American celebrity with a similar name.
I wish Steve Allen had been a regular panelist, he brought alot of comedy to it. He was cute and goofy.
I agree. Steve was my favorite 4th panelist.
He left WML to host the Tonight Show.
I got to meet him once & listen as he played the piano--very nice guy.
This is the first episode in which the camera does NOT cut directly to John Daly following Bennett Cerf's into. Here, following Bennett's intro, the camera does a wide shot of the entire panel then slowly pans over to the entrance area where John first appears.
I take it you have watched WML before.
Two short moments with Dorothy, blink and you'll miss them! :)
1. A conference was asked for, John interrupts and tells it is over. Dorothy rolls her eyes. :) 7:50
2. After Gale Storm's Goodbye to the panel and just before the commercial break you can see Dorothy fluff her hair and looking in a little hand mirror. :) 23:30
Dot shots! LOL Good eye.
Probably trying to undo the damage done by her blindfold and its widish, ribbon-like ties. It was a big help, later on, when they switched to blindfolds with plastic earpieces resembling those found on eyeglasses -- the earpieces slid over the ears and didn't disrupt a woman's hairdo. Probably even better for many of the men as to their hair than those thin elastic straps.
Good ones, I'm sure it's not the first time she's rolled her eyes at JCD. A lot of women might want to touch up with a mirror in the presence of gorgeous Gale Storm.
As Bennett Cerf briefly mentions, his 2 appearances on the British version of WML? were both shows which also had Bob Monkhouse on the panel (June 1956).
John's face after Lemmon's oddball question is hilarious!!
Lemmon?
Miss Storm, is also wearing a Heart on her neck.
A lot of pendants utilize heart shaped gems or precious metals. Arlene is wearing such jewelry, too.
I have been waiting for “Oh, Susanna” to show up in syndication. I thought that Gale, Zazu Pitts, and Roy Roberts were very good in that late 1950’s show.
Bob Monkhouse is very appealing. I wish he had been on more often.
A very very funny guy
An insufferable creep with all the phoney smarminess.
Gale Storm also appeared on the East Side Kids movie entitled SMART ALECKS (1942). The former played as Danny Lyons' sister.
Bob Monkhouse fans would never see this. If you know any please send them in this direction.
The panelists England's top male model compliments Robert " doesn't look little like Liberace "....
Looks a little bit like Anthony Newley.
@@gbrumburgh: That's an insult to Tony Newley. :)
The 3 of them are flaming toe touchers!!The smile & the twinkle in their eyes gave them away!!
@@richardmilliken5651 Doth protest too much.🌈🌈
Bob Monkhouse does a very good imitation of Liberace!
Like the Comercial's it links the time line to the program. ..
BOB MONKHOUSE?!? I can't believe it. One of our most celebrated comedians in the UK (although not one of my favourites, have to say...he loves himself too much). Nevertheless this is REALLY early for him. His heyday came a decade (and more) later.
Channel owner, please correct it to Bob Monkhouse....only his mother will have known him as Robert!!
A rare US television appearance by the dean of UK Gameshows, Bob Monkhouse.
GALE STORM was LUCILLE BALL'S only competition in the 1950's with "My Little Margie" & "Oh, Susanna"/"The GALE STORM Show" and she was also DOT RECORDS best selling female artist with hits "Dark Moon", "Tell Me Why", "Treasure Island" and "I Don't Want To Walk Without You" ect. Can't find her version of "Far Away Places" sang on her TV Show.
I loved “ my little Margie.”
Me too ! I've been watching multiple reruns of that classic sitcom over the past few months on Wed nights on the "ZLiving" channel and have fallen in love with it ! Zany but cute series !
Gale Storm was very cute. I remember watching her on TV.
It happened on 5th avenue. In top 5 Christmas movies.
Absolutely! One of the BEST!
Love Charlie Ruggles, hate Victor Moore.
such a good one!
I was only 7 when this was on but I remember it well.
Cerf hints in an interview that the panel were told the occupations & he & Arlene had fun & delayed 'getting it' whereas Dorothy wanted to be seen as 'clever'. He said she hogged the camera, repeated Private conversations, Daly had a grudge - interesting he was Married to Earl Warren's daughter & Dorothy died while investigating & writing about JFK.
I love Gale Storm. She is a wonderful person.
I wrestled my older sister once and lost!
I wrestled your older sister once.
She won. Oo-EEEEEE!
I was boxing with Myrna, my cousin and named after Myrna Loy, when I was 7 or 8 yrs old and so was she, when she caught me unprepared and zonked me squarely on the chin. Made me dizzy for a moment.😊😊
Never heard Bob Monkhouse called ROBERT before!!!
Right? Somehow, I think "Robert's Full House" doesn't have the same ring to it.
Robert was so handsome and hilarious! 🥰👏
Bob Monkhouse - came over as smarmy but really wasn't at all in the real world. Highly respected comedian, writer, cartoonist and presenter - who made it look so easy. Was lucky enough to see him record two shows in the 1980's. Needed no warm up man, as he did this himself, was very funny indeed, and interacted with the audience - time was no object.
A great national treasure.
ruclips.net/video/PjUyqX8yElE/видео.html
I agree. He often came over as a 'schmoozer' in these early days; but he was never two-faced, unlike so many others in the profession. Always generous to others. I forgot he had some kind of a profile, this early, in the States, tho'. He got around...
Gale was so smokin hot!!
professional wrestler had more class and elegance than .... i do not know, most people nowadays?.....
More class and elegance than ... anyone these days, I’d say.
On television, she was on her best behavior. Who knows what she like in everyday life. Who knows what any of them were like elsewhere. Dorothy Kilgallen, for example, was an alcoholic.
PROFESSIONAL WRESTLER
ENGLAND'S TOP MALE MODEL
I would have said the male model’s service was a necessity as he helps sell things. He seemed a little uncomfortable when told his job was a luxury.
English panelist tonight reminds me of the 40's actor Eddie Bracken.
Never seen that camera angle before... 9:34
I think because that next panelist was a lefty, and he wrote his name from the other side of the board. They had to make an adjustment.
I never thought of Gale Storm resembling Rita Hayworth a little bit until i watched this episode .
I don't see any resemblance between the two. Rita Hayworth was a great beauty but in a much different way. Gale Storm's eye expression is especially captivating.
The male model from England reminds me a bit of Errol Flynn.
I thought Arlene Francis was Helen Mirren for a sec! Gale Storm was such a delight.
*SO* Pretty !,
☺️😊☺️☺️☺️🎨😊☺️☺️🎨
Congratulations Madam! On Thoroughly Flumoxing Them ,!.👏👏👏👏
Monkhouse and the model had definitely met each other on grindr before the show... probably after too lol
I guess Gale Storm and the panelists traveled in different social circles. they didn't guess her after the 10 questions. and then even when she switched into her own natural voice they were still stumped. A little embarrassing for Gale. I recall her co-star on her show was an actress named Zazu Pitts. Zazu was an accomplished actress.
Yes, I too sensed that Gale was a little bit miffed that they didn't work out who she was after she used her own voice .. I felt a little sorry for her .. She seemed to be quite a nice person.
0:47 WOW - I’ll probably spend the rest of the week wonderful what colour Arlene’s stunning dress was?
(Ironic if it was sliver-grey, the way it looks).
Funny how all their questions are related to NY this or that.
The regular panelists were all New Yorker's, therefore anything outside their orbit was a bit tough.
For the mystery guest there is usually a reason why they are in New York and appearing on the show. If they could work out the reason for being in the city, they would usually work out who it is.
I like the Monkhouse guy saying the guest must have been involved in a scandal. Lol
My Little Margie.
I always notice Dorothy giving the female guests a quick once-over as they say goodbye and shake hands, but she beams at the more attractive male guests, as is quite apparent with Britain's top male model.
You're just trying to start trouble. Knock it off.
I thought he looked like Liberace when the show first came on
Cornish Pattie ? Monkhouse you muppet pasty !!!
I've never heard of Gale Storm before, but her name sounds like she belongs on a stage with feathers!
Arlene's dress!!!!
So-called "Gale Storm" was born Josephine Owaissa Cottle. Why the public deceit & disrespect of her family name?
Uuuuuhhhh..Have you ever heard of a stage name?????
GALE STORM CAME INTO HER OWN LATE IN LIFE...SHE SPENT A LOT OF YEARS IN LOUSY B MOVIES...LIKE HER VERY MUCH.....
Used to watch My Little Margie altho its plot has faded over the years.
Love Gale's beautiful voice-Dark Moon, Ivory Tower, Tell Me Why, etc. Have all those on CD.
What feel bad for mystery guest
4:08 inappropriate question, indeed. Swatted down by Mr. Daly.
He was embarrassing.
*SOME* One; Possibly TWO Someones.. ...looks Unhappy.. 🤔😐😶😐😐😐
I was never a fan of Bob Monkhouse who always seemed to be insincere and often anxious to demonstrate how clever he was. In this edition he's trying too hard to ingratiate himself with the audience and the panel members. I found him in his early days to be rather too glib and superficial. He improved as a comedian when he matured and cut out the 'smart Alec' stuff.
Agree. He was definitely more bearable as he got older...
One million professional wrestlers.
Zero locksmiths.
😥😥😥😥😥😥
EVEN THOUGH I AM FROM THE U K I LIKE THE U S GAME PLAY
SO MUCH BETTER
Robert Alan Monkhouse, (“Bob”), British comedian and television personality (born June 1, 1928, Beckenham, Kent, Eng.-died Dec. 29, 2003, Eggington, Bedfordshire, Eng.), was a mainstay of British TV sitcoms and quiz shows for more than 50 years; he was admired for his comfortable on-screen affability and his seemingly endless supply of fast-talking one-liner jokes, though his critics denounced him as “smarmy.” After beginning as a stand-up comic and a gag writer for other performers, Monkhouse hosted some dozen TV game shows, including Candid Camera (1960-67), The Golden Shot (1967-71, 1974-75), Celebrity Squares (1975-79, 1993-94), Family Fortunes (1979-83), and Bob’s Full House (1984-90). He also appeared in several films and published two volumes of memoirs. Monkhouse was made OBE in 1993.
Eggington?
I loved Bob’s Full House. My favourite quiz of all time.
Looks like Robert Monkhouse has a case of Robert Q. Lewis-itis with the first female contestant
ROBERT Monkhouse?!?🎩
I heard the name Gale Storm before, but I thought it was from a Soap Opera
Greg you are probably thinking of soap opera the Secret Storm
@@robertlongwill8856 LOL, 😂 That's probably it. Thanks.
@@Theyralltakenfu NP
That's The Secret Storm. :)
Wow. The british guest panelist was a little inappropriate with the wrestler! Then I popped his name into google and all sorts of interesting stories popped up about him and a british actress named Diana Dors. He was a bit of a horn dog. He was entertaining though.
Diana Dors was also married to Richard Dawson.
John Daly was ahead of his time. He used hand sanitizer.
is it me or did most the guest have tragic lives
Dorothy did thats for sure, so tragic...😔
Guests or panelists?
24:00 strange to hear someone say "meme" in the 50s.
Yes. It was coined by biologist Richard Dawkins in 1976 to represent a unit of cultural transmission that is passed down from generation to generation like a gene. It is only by accident that we heard it on this show. Bob Monkhouse guessed that it might be the way Americans pronounce "mime."
I think he meant a mime.
Robert Monkhouse...whatever happened to Bob?
???
Bob is such a flirt! 😆
Such a pervert is more like it.
@@TheBatugan77 another ridiculous comment. You are irrelevant.
