Something quite atrocious?



Convoluted connections and spurious excuses, #824 in a series...

Sharing her special day with the likes of Jimmy Carter, George Peppard, Tom Bosley, Stella Stevens, Keith Duffy of Boyzone, Walter Matthau, Richard Harris, Theresa May, Youssou N'Dour (60 today), Donny Hathaway and "French-cheese-turned-superhero" Brie Larson, it's Dame Julie Andrews' birthday today! She's 84, you know...

She also shares it with flamboyant conductor and violinist André Rieu, who blows out seventy candles on his cake. Here is the man himself and his mega-successful Johann Strauss Orchestra, tying up the celebrations quite neatly with one of Dame Julie's more famous numbers:
