Badly miscast. If Julie couldn't do it, they should have cast someone else like some British actress who could sing. Petula Clark or someone like that. hepburn was miscast. Badly miscast.

But I'm willing to bet that she was better than Audrey Hepburn in the movie version. Hepburn was incapable of playing the Cockney flower girl without looking and sounding like an actress playing a role. I'm sure that Julie would have been able to pull that one off.
