and one for television at 6141 Hollywood Blvd. He was replaced by Kimberley Rew. Young has two stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame; one for motion pictures at 6104 Hollywood Blvd. Another Alan Davies was the original guitarist for the Soft Boys. She died of ovarian cancer in 2000 at the age of 87 and was interred in the Holy Cross Cemetery in Culver City, California. Both Davies and Sawalha deny the event. Her trademark at the beginning of each show was to appear dramatically in a doorway, dressed in the latest of high fashion evening gowns. On January 1, 2004, it was reported in the news that Alan Davies had married Julia Sawalha, his co-star in the later series of Jonathan Creek.

Instead, she moved to television, where she hosted and starred in the well-received anthology series The Loretta Young Show. Rumours tipped him to be the new ninth Dr Who, but the role is in fact to go to Christopher Eccleston. In 1953 she made her last movie, It Happens Every Thursday. He has most recently appeared as the regular panellist in the BBC quiz game QI hosted by Stephen Fry. In 1949, she received another Academy Award nomination, for Come to the Stable. He has also starred in Jonathan Creek, Bob and Rose and A Many Splintered Thing. The same year she starred in The Bishop's Wife, a perennial favorite that still airs on television during the Christmas season. In 1995 he appeared in the spoof travel show One for the Road and got his own radio show The Alan Davies Show in 1998.

But although she was receiving fan and critical appreciation, it wasn't until 1947 that she received her first Oscar nomination -- and win -- for The Farmer's Daughter. He won the Time Out award for Best Young Comic in 1991. Young made several movies, working on as many as seven or eight a year. Alan Davies (born 6 March 1966, in Essex) is a British comedian and actor. The daughter herself, known as Judy Lewis (she took Young's second husband's last name), did not know the true story until she herself was an adult. They told the whole world that the little girl had been adopted.

She and her mother moved to Europe, returning with a daughter. In 1934, Young had an affair with Clark Gable, and became pregnant. (They had acted together in The Second Floor Mystery.) The marriage was annulled the next year, just as their second movie together, ironically called Too Young to Marry, came out. In 1930, Young, then only seventeen, ran off with 26-year-old actor Grant Withers and married him in Yuma, Arizona.

The next year, she was anointed one of the WAMPAS Baby Stars. It was not until 1928 that she first had her Loretta Young billing, in The Whip Woman. She was billed as Gretchen Young in her next film, also in 1917, Sirens of the Sea. Her half-sister Georgiana (daughter of her mother and step-father George Belzer) eventually married actor Ricardo Montalban.

Even though her mother said no, Gretchen was allowed to live with Murray for two years. The movie's star, Mae Murray, so fell in love with little Gretchen that she asked to adopt her. Her first role was at age 4 in the silent film The Primrose Ring. Born Gretchen Michaela Young in Salt Lake City, Utah, she moved with her family to Hollywood when she was three years old. Her sisters, Polly Ann Young and Elizabeth Jane Young (screen name Sally Blane) appeared in child parts in movies, and young Gretchen did the same.
