Funny Names.


''I only pay my actors what I think they're worth''
Peter Rogers (Their 'worth' was £5000 for the men and £2,500 for the women.)

It's been a while since I posted anything here - I do apologise. It's been a busy few months and I've been quite occupied elsewhere.
I'm trying to compile a list of funny 'Carry On' names that were used in the films for a project I'm working on.
If you can add any others to my list then please do.
Maude Boggins, Hope Springs, Sid Flange, Mrs Prodworthy, Miss Allcock, Amelia Fosdyke, Dan Dann (the lavatory man), Miss Haggard, Reverend Flasher. I know there are lots more but my mind's gone a blank. Go on give me a PROD...

I seem to remember that Joan Sims' character in Carry On Seargent was PC Passworthy. Also Kenneth Williams' name in Carry On Behind was quite funny, Roland Crump.

What a brilliant blog! Take a look at www.boxedanslemerde.blogspot.com to see Sid's thoughts on boxing, along with other 'late' cast members!
