Gloria Hunniford Remembers... Doris Day

Gloria Hunniford looks back at her 1995 interview with one of cinema鈥檚 great female idols, Doris Day, and shares her memories of how the encounter came together.

In the 1950s and 60s, Doris Day ranked amongst cinema鈥檚 biggest box office stars, thanks to roles in films such as musical Calamity Jane, Hitchcock鈥檚 The Man Who Knew Too Much, and especially a string of hit romantic comedies, including the classic Pillow Talk.

Amongst the movie icon鈥檚 millions of fans across the world was a young Gloria Hunniford, who in 1995, years after Doris had unexpectedly stepped back from Hollywood and swapped fame for anonymity, was invited to Doris鈥檚 home in Carmel, USA, for an exclusive opportunity to interview her heroine.

Here, ahead of a special screening of that rare interview, Gloria draws back the curtain on her encounter with one of cinema鈥檚 great female idols and shares her memories of how the meeting came together, and the special behind-the-scenes moments that TV viewers of the day never got to see.
