Petula Clark's Height
5ft 2 (157.5 cm)
English singer and actress, known for songs like Downtown and film Goodbye Mr Chips. There's a few articles on her website from the 60's and 70's with various descriptions of her height as being "5ft", "5ft 1", "5ft 1.5" and "5ft 2".

I did weigh myself recently for the first time in ages. Oh dear, 4lb too heavy (I'm 5ft 2in and around 9st), but being too thin at my age is not a good idea -- it makes you look older.

I am 5ft 2in and would like to be taller because clothes look better. I would really like longer legs like my daughter.

My friend and confidente, the late Big George, who used to be a DJ for Greater London Radio, as well as writing songs for TV programmes, used to be a massive fan of Petula's. He told me all about her during a phone call!
5ft2. 😁💐🎶

While it's true,especially with petite women,their height is often exaggerated to make them look taller,Petula's 5'2" height is comfortably correct for her. Nice singer.

Yes, yes.... How silly of me... He looks at least 4" taller.... Only in the FANTASY WORLD, that is !!
The guy looks no more than 0.5" taller than her.. Unless she is wearing "a half foot shoes", he is under 5'7".

Yes, near the end of the day, he must be indeed under 5'7".
After all she said that she is 5'2" and I cannot imagine her wearing a half foot of heals unless she is a glam-rocker just about to go on to the stage or a Kiss impersonator.
