In this comic-dramatisation of the affair between Sidney James and Barbara Windsor, played out against the backdrop of the Carry On films during the 1960s and 1970s, filming's not as glamorous as it's cracked up to be; it's a rather miserable business if your caravan leaks, your co-star's a manic depressive, and those younger women aren't so young any more.

Gemma Valler was impressive and charming as starlet Imogen, while Lewis Bailey captured the perceived essence of Kenneth Williams fabulously in both physicality and vocal talent, displaying excellent comic timing. However, Terry Moore’s Sid wasn’t lecherous enough, nor Helen Stoddart’s Barbara bubbly enough, although both were very moving during their more vulnerable moments, and both captured the infamous laughs accurately.

Director James George elicited all the coarse, risqué innuendos and double entendres from this loosely biographical script, ensuring a good, brisk pace while finding that fine balance between comedy and poignancy.
