Customer Reviews

a-z and nothing missing a really carry on... and on reading!
If you ever wanted to know who played who,who filmed what or how would that cut scene have been in the carry ons this book is for you,add to that the added bonus of two full scripts never published before and you have a full evening locked in a quiet room with a real fireside book.From the same author of the complete a-z of dads army and in very much the same vein.A great review of every film,tv show and stage show to a break down of actors,actress, major and minor to cut scenes printed for you to view and a full list of backroom staff even a brief mention for the Carryoons (don't know what the carryoons are? then you will have to buy this book}The book is rather large and heavy and you may have to force yourself to put it down have a swig of brandy and carry on reading for a couple more hours but in my view well worth the effort and you will find yourself going over things more than once, there is so much detail.If you think you have read everything on the Carry ons you haven't but this book comes very close.Well worth a look and a second look.
