Dick Van Dyke and Julie Andrews seem to be just as close as they were during "Mary Poppins." In his 2016 memoir, Van Dyke recalled the first time he read the "Mary Poppins" script, telling his first wife Margie it was "sensational," according to an excerpt obtained by the Daily Mail. "Walt Disney offered me the role of Bert the chimney sweep, opposite Julie Andrews, who had been cast as the practically perfect nanny Mary Poppins," he wrote. "She was a lady first and foremost, but she also had a great, whimsical sense of humor. I never once saw her get angry about anything or utter a single complaint."
