I will be 60 years old in November. The same year Mary Poppins came out. I'm sure the film came out before I was born, but when I was a kid, watching that movie and having the album with the songs always made me happy.
This was so enjoyable. Karen was magic in Mary Poppins. My daughter wanted to be Jane Banks. What a great career she’s had. Thank you Craig, and for bringing out the best in everyone. Like Karen, I love coyotes and feed them as well at my home!🌼👍
Excellent as always. What a fascinating and beautifully articulate person Ms Dotrice is. Love British TV and Cinema, so know the Dotrice family well. This was delightful.
This was magic!!! So many wonderful memories. Thank you Craig and Karen. Have loved Karen’s work for years. Please , please interview Michael Crawford. His Phantom of the Opera is the benchmark! Plus Michele Dotrice 🙏🙏
Some Mothers Do Have Em is such a classic British series. Oh Betty! Never knew Michelle was/is Karen’s sister. Karen, thank you for decades of acting excellence. Have followed your career and appreciate this excellent interview. 🌹🌞
So grateful for this interview. I grew up in California watching all these films--at one point lived in Camarillo where Walter Brennan was grand Marshall at the parade in the summer, Now live far away from there but those memories are like yesterday. So precious and wonderful to see how well grounded and lovely one of my favorite actresses as a child turned out to be!💕. Thank you so much for the update update!
The Three Lives of Thomasina is a magical movie, an absolute favorite of mine as a little girl. With Susan Hampshire and Patrick McGoohan, what a cast. And Karen Dotrice made me cry every time. And she got a singing lesson from Julie Andrews, who’d been coached as a singing child, too, wow. Wonderful memories. Glad to see she’s well and happy.
Gee whiz I loved this. Craig, so glad you presented Karen Dotrice here. She’s such an underrated performer. Had no idea of her fascinating backstory/family history. Great to hear such nice recollections of Walt Disney!😊
Hi Karen Dotrice. I had a crush on you when we were both little kids and I saw you in the movies 😍. I grew up to be an animation artist. Walt Disney is still my hero. You are still so beautiful, and I still have that crush
Walt Disney preferred to be called "Uncle Walt" by the children, but many were too respectful and shy, opting to call him "Mr. Disney". Annette Funicello, and Sharon Baird, expressed in interviews that They regretted not calling him "Uncle Walt" as they realized later how much it would have meant to him.
I watched this interview again, with my daughters, who love The Gnome-Mobile. I'm wondering Craig, as a former Brit living in the US, not only do I adore Karen Dotrice but also her sister Michelle Dotrice. Is there any chance you could interview Michelle? Some Mothers Do Ave Em is such a classic for me. Please, please and please again. 😻
I agree. Some Mothers Do Have Em is such a great series. Yes please, Michelle Dotrice next. Blanche Hudson, Ben's wife. (We both love your Celebrity Drop and watch every interview with excitement)
Craig Bennett is Australian, it's likely his accent. I'm sure Karen would have corrected him if he were pronouncing her surname incorrectly. Oddly, I just saw an interview on the BBC where the hosts pronounced her sister Michele Dotrice's surname exactly as Craig did. 😀
My brother always had the hugest crush on Mary Poppins! 💕💙

Karen Dotrice equals legend. Please do a memoir. 💙
Karen Dotrice is a true Disney Legend! Her insights on the 60th anniversary are priceless. Thanks for sharing
"Jane and Michael Banks" almost look like they could be brother and sister in real life! ❤
One of my favorite "Mary Poppins" lines: ". . . With our thanks from Jane and Michael Banks." Always makes me smile!
Yes so polite after they promised to Not "hide your spectacles where you cant see put toads in your bed or pepper in your tea "
@@wonderrob3225 Mary Poppins also had to have a "cheery dis-pos-i-tion."
Love this interview. Craig, you are excellent. Karen Dotrice is a true Disney legend! Loved her in Mary Poppins and Tomasina. ❤
I love her too.
Karen Dotrice is my favorite Disney actress.
This interview is a treasure for all Mary Poppins fans! 💯

Hi Blanche & Ben. Leave it with us. Craig & I will see what we can do. Kelley
Thank you for the suggestion Molly. Craig and I will reach out to Michele. Cheers, Kelley
As earlier stated, loved this interview so much, but yes, Michele Dotrice please, and Dick Van Dyke! You are so good at this!
Was nothing mentioned about Glynis Johns or David Tomlinson?
Is there any way we could see the 4 Pictures that Walt autographed for Karen? I would so dearly love to see those
Do-trice,not doh-treece 🙄🎩
