More about the book

Exploring the roots of British comedy, this book delves into the 31 Carry On films, highlighting their origins in Victorian music halls and saucy seaside postcards. Set against the backdrop of post-war Britain, these films satirize societal changes, lampooning icons like James Bond and Cleopatra. With memorable performances from stars such as Sid James and Barbara Windsor, the Carry On series became a cultural phenomenon. Gerrard's analysis connects the films to their historical context, making this a must-read for fans of the franchise.
