Jill Day (Yvonne Page, 5 December 1930, Brighton, England – 16 November 1990, Kingston-Upon-Thames, England) was a successful pop singer and actress in Britain in the 1950s and early 60s. ==Career== She was born in Brighton and found fame in movies, radio and television. She appeared in several films including ''Beat Up the Town'' and ''All for Mary'' and sung on the soundtrack of ''The Good Companions'' and ''Doctor At Sea''. In 1957, she competed in the heats of the contest to represent the United Kingdom in the 1957 Eurovision Song Contest, eventually losing out to Patricia Bredin. In the early 1960s, Day had her own comedy sketch show on BBC Television, ''The Jill Day Show''. She also appeared on ''Dee Time''. A Jill Day comic strip drawn by Denis Gifford was published in Star Comics (1954), edited by Gifford and Bob Monkhouse. Day was well known for her long slim dresses with stiff petticoat under the below-the-knee hem which she wore in numerous television appearances. She faded from public view as public tastes for pop music changed through the late 1950s and 1960s, eventually retiring to live in London. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jill Day」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
