Available for over a year

Marni Nixon, known as Hollywood's "invisible voice", has died aged 86. The singer appeared, uncredited, on many of the biggest film musicals of all time, dubbing the voices for Deborah Kerr in The King and I, and Audrey Hepburn in My Fair Lady. Stephen Cole, who co-wrote Marni Nixon's autobiography 'I Could Have Sung All Night', takes a look back at her life. (Photo: Marni Nixon, a still from The King and I, a cinema showing My Fair Lady.
