ANDREWS TEMPTED TO CHEAT WITH BURTON

Actress JULIE ANDREWS developed such a crush on late movie star RICHARD BURTON when they appeared together on Broadway - she contemplated having an affair with him.
The pair shared the stage in a 1960 New York production of Camelot, and Andrews reveals a sexual chemistry between the two was obvious - even though they were both married; she to Tony Walton and Burton to Sybil Williams.
She reveals, "He was unbelievably attractive. He just oozed charisma.
"I am so glad he didn't make any kind of a pass at me for many, many months. I was happily married and I hope I would've been a good girl, but I couldn't be sure. He was that attractive.
But when Burton eventually made a pass, she knocked him back: "There came a day when Richard did, in his way, make a sort of pass. And I got angry that he did it.
"I have to admit that Mary Poppins let fly with an Anglo Saxon four-letter-word. I told him where to go and how to get there. That resulted in another two bad performances."
