Sweet dreams to Shirley Temple, who has died today at the grand old age of 85.
Helen and I will always treasure Shirley’s starring role in The Little Princess and those childhood Sunday mornings in my Nana’s little flat would not have been the same without her.
No-one sulked, or rallied quite like Shirley Temple did they? Bless her curly-topped heart.
RIP Shirley. You were a one off. A part of my childhood. My Mum as a child in Bermuda wore Shirley Temple dresses and had a Shirley Temple doll. We used to watch her on the t v Sunday afternoons. Magic !
