Video Description

Carry On: Secrets & Scandals - C5 2023 Documentary. First aired on C5 on 18/02/2023. Presented here in Full HD Version. The Carry On films are a cornerstone of British comedy, cheeky, charming, and wildly successful despite shoestring budgets. But behind the laughter lies a story of exploitation, resilience, and untold truths. This revealing documentary lifts the curtain on one of cinema’s most beloved franchises, featuring never-before-broadcast interviews from a 1998 cast reunion. Hear firsthand accounts from stars like Amanda Barrie, Sherrie Hewson, and Valerie Leon, as they share candid memories of life on set, the affair between Sid James and Barbara Windsor, and the shocking treatment they received from producer Peter Rogers. From filming beach scenes in car parks to dodging censors with clever tricks, Carry On... Secrets & Scandals uncovers the real stories behind the risqué humour, enduring friendships, and the personal struggles that followed the final curtain. These iconic films still raise a smile, but this documentary reminds us of the grit behind the giggles. To the legends who brought laughter to generations, Sid, Babs, Kenneth, Hattie, Joan, Charles, Bernard, Peter, Kenneth, Jim, and so many more, thank you for the joy, the mischief, and the magic. Your legacy lives on in every chuckle, every double entendre, and every cheeky wink.
