Introduction
You think you know the Carry On films? All Blackpool naughty postcards and happy families? Think again!
Welcome to Sid James’ Merry Traveller, a bone of contention between him and his manic-depressive, flashing co-star Kenneth Williams and the scene of many a dirty innuendo with a ‘carry on’ extra.
That is until Sid meets Babs Windsor, a spunky, loud-mouthed, blonde bombshell who gives just as good as she gets! Set in Sid James’ caravan-cum-dressing room at Pinewood Studios during the making of the eponymous films, Sid attempts to romance Barbara under the arched eyebrows of Kenneth Williams.
Terry Johnson’s famous play focuses on the behind scenes shenanigans of our most loved Carry On stars and includes caravans, flying off bikini tops, some bottom trouble, a hired heavy and a few scantily clad girls!
