Today is the 49th anniversary of the world premiere of Walt Disney's beloved classic, Mary Poppins. The film premiered at Grauman's Chinese Theater in Hollywood, CA, where it received a five minute long standing ovation.
With music by the famous Sherman Brothers, and starring Julie Andrews as the magical nanny and Dick Van Dyke as chimney sweep Bert, Mary Poppins has been charming Disney fans for decades.
A mix of live action and animation, Mary Poppins is still very popular today, and the characters from the film appear at the Disney Parks worldwide.
Let's celebrate with them now in our usual Character Central style, with a cavalcade of our favourite photos from our own experiences.
Happy 49th birthday Mary, Bert and the Penguins!

Today (20th January) is Penguin Awareness Day. It is a day where people should recognise the significance of these beautiful creatures - one of the very few native inhabitants of Antarctica.
In celebration of these wonderful animals, here are some of our favourite Disney Penguins having fun at the Parks!
