Radio version with piano accompaniment by Mantovani. Painting: 'Le Chéri de ma chérie est mon chéri' by Henry Fournier. "La Vie Parisienne", 22 February 1930
Didn't know he wrote it for Bea Lillie! That explains a LOT! Be sure to hear the two versions by the great Patricia Routledge posted here on TH-cam: a very different performing personality than Lillie, but a equally brilliant comic actor!

Marvellous, truly marvellous.
Patricia Rutledge did a version of this 2 years ago and it's tremendous.
would love to know who was really who... but I guess Elsa Maxwell was somewhere in there (swinging from the chandelier?)
