three internet sources give her birth as 9 December 1897

1971 engagement edit

According to Time magazine in 1971, she was engaged to the much younger Beaudoin Mills. No indication found if this resulted in another marriage. Dl2000 02:50, 9 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

I am sure I remember Hermione having a significant presence on British TV (at its best!) in the 60's Can anyone expand on this? 85.189.168.57 (talk) 04:59, 27 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Early life edit

"Born Hermione Ferdinanda Gingold in London, England, she was the daughter of a high-standing Vienna-born Jewish financier James Gingold and Kate Walter or Walters, an English-born housewife. Her marriage to Lionel in 1894 was conducted by the Chief Rabbi." There is no mention anywhere else of "Lionel" - should this read "Her marriage to James"? I assume from the date that it refers to Kate's marriage. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.244.246.25 (talk) 08:15, 25 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hermine -- Hermione edit

"...his Austrian-born wife, Hermine, after whom Hermione Gingold was named."

It seems fairly clear that "Hermine" should be "Hermione," but you just never know. I was going to check the original source, but there doesn't seem to be any citation for this.

Does anyone know for sure that this should be changed??? Zlama (talk) 08:06, 7 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

Gingold in 1973, by Allan Warren edit

Guy. I apologize for saying this in advance. But, IMHO, this photo of Ms. Gingold is absolutely horrible. This makes her look unconditionally ugly. Can't we find a better image of the late actress somewhere? There must be hundreds available on the internet. -- Jason Palpatine (talk) 23:53, 17 September 2012 (UTC)   This User fails to understand Wikipedia's Systematized Logistical Projection of its Balanced Policy Contingency.

Issues with Filmography? edit

After checking it today, it appears that at least some of Mrs. Gingold's filmography has been conflated with that of Hermione Baddeley, with whom she frequently co-starred. What stood out was "Aristocats" in 1970, which in fact featured Baddeley.

Oddly enough, I was checking Gingold's filmography because I was told by my fiancé that she played the maidservant in Mary Poppins, which was also Hermione Baddeley- so it appears this may be a common problem.
