:

Shirley Bassey, singer, was surprised by Eamonn Andrews at Heathrow Airport. Shirley was born the youngest of seven children, in Tiger Bay, Cardiff, and after leaving school found work in a local factory packing saucepans, boosting her income by singing in local pubs and clubs in the evenings and at weekends. She signed her first professional contract in 1953, and within a few years was touring Britain and achieving chart success with recordings such as Kiss Me, Honey Honey, Kiss Me and As I Love You.
