Old Mother Riley was Arther Lucan, he died on stage at the Tivoli in Hull and is buried here.
His wife was Kitty McShane ,she played his daughter Kitty in the films.

BILKO IS MY ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE EMAGGS!!
My late Grandad was Colonel Hall's doppleganger - he lived in Goole though, so I know it wasn't him really ;D
Did you know: Phil Silvers starred in Marilyn Monroe's last ever film 'Something's Got to Give'. She died before it was finished.
And poor old Phil ended his days believing he was actually Bilko :(
I am such a MINE of useful information it frightens me sometimes ::)
And my daughter Daisy calls me Grandma Clampitt since we got the Ford pick-up truck ;D She's not far wrong actually .....

I certainly remember him being interviewed on TV here being not happy after it was cancelled. Wiki says it was too expensive not that the army didn't like it
The factory thing had some light or siren that went off warning them that someone important was coming and they had hidden rooms etc to hide the card games etc It was called "The New phil Silvers Show"
Remember "Carry on -Follow that Camel"?

I hope you haven't got "Carry on Columbus" or "Carry on Emmanuel", Jeannine. "Carry on England" was also dreadful (not that i've seen the first two).

Some Carry on films were HORRIBLY politically incorrect. Carry on up the Khyber is the latest one that I've seen again and thought 'Oh my goodness & FOR F**CK'S SAKE.
But having said that. The Carry on films that didn't have a political or social agenda were genuinely funny.
The Carry on Lord giveth, and the Carry on Lord taketh away!
Watch Carry On Screaming or Carry on at Your Covenience. These are the mainstays.

Carry on up the Kyber is definitely the best. It (almost) qualifies as a good film (That'll teach them to ban turbans on the buses!). the dinner party at the end is a hoot
They're very popular in India

Rhubarb Thrasher! Let me take this opportinuty to thrash you where your rhubarb don't shine!
I suspect that last post was ironic .. but I can't be objective at the moment. Just ordered a curry (honest to goodness) My head is ON FIRE.
How about this one?

if ordering a curry makes your head go on fire TB, what happens when you actually eat it? I made a curry from scratch tonite so i.m better than you.
Ealing Comedies are truly great films. Carry On films are things we grew up with, so they're great for us, but not really great films. (My that's a big one! I'm from Texas Mam. We've all got big ones there. It's not exactly Oscar Wilde, is it?)
