Carry On Again

There is to be a new Carry On film by the end of the year according to a report on the BBC News Website: here

It sounds like a fun film. With the state of the country as it is, I think it’s the right time for us all to be cheered up by simple, bawdy humour. There’s a general trend for comedy to be ‘clever’ at the moment, when what we really need is some good honest silliness. ‘The Goodies’ is a good example of the type of stuff I mean - silly gags with big laughs, well-written, that doesn’t patronise the audience. ‘The Muppet Show’ is another example.

The new Carry On will, it’s said, have some cameos too. Let’s hope we get a Babs Windsor laugh in there somewhere…
