Or did you stop once you were working on the arches?
So you were born, we'll rewind a little, you were born six months after the end of the First World War.
Yes.
Home was Nottingham.
What was home life like?
What kind of house did you live in?
More about your mother later on, but for now, more about you as a little girl.
You've said in interviews that you were as young as three when you were stage struck.
Tell me what happened.
Do you remember actually enjoying them?
No, what was the feeling?
And you thought, I want a bit more of this.
Yes, I must have done.
Let's have some more music then.
June, tell me about your second disc today.
That was Nelson Eddy and I Passed By Your Window and memories there, June Spencer, of your father sometimes, what did he do, hold your hand and sing it to you to get you off to sleep?
And your parents also, I understand, had a motorbike with a sidecar.
What do you remember of that?
Well, we had that when I was about four, I would think.
Did you watch them go off in it?
