Frankie Vaughan

Inscription

Frankie Vaughan, CBE DL, 1928 - 1999, entertainer.
Musical Heritage

DL stands for Deputy Lieutenant (of the County of Buckinghamshire).

Site: London Palladium - interior (6 memorials)

W1, Argyll Street, 8

The Vaughan, Grade, Centenary and Crosby plaques are all in the foyer area. The Forsyth plaque is, we understand, under the stage. And the Tommy Steele plaque? When we visited in November 2023 we were told that it is in the bar area, access to which requires a ticket.
