Carry On Blogging Festive Advent: 12 December


And so, once again December is upon us. I'll be bringing you a daily dose of festive Carry On cheer each day on the lead up to the 25th. 

So every day I will bring you another cracking Carry On photo with a festive theme. They will probably all be rather naughty, but hopefully all quite nice. 

Today we have a festive snap of two Carry On veterans in the roles they became best known for. Johnny Briggs and Amanda Barrie as Mike and Alma in a Corrie Christmas promo shot from the early 1990s. From watching repeats from that era on ITV3 of late, the festive season was rarely that jolly for either of them. Amanda had starred in Carry On Cabby and Cleo back in the 1960s before stepping onto the cobbles of Weatherfield, while Johnny made three small appearances in the Carry Ons - Up The Khyber, then Behind and England just before he joined Coronation Street in 1976.


What a Carry On at Christmas!
