Revealed: Unseen Carry On footage

In new ITV3 documentary

Martin Clunes is to narrate a new three-part documentary celebrating the Carry On series.

Carry On Forever will feature some behind-the-scenes footage from the 31 films that has never been seen before.

The ITV3 series, which will air over the Easter bank holiday weekend, will also feature new cast interviews, and on-set photography, some of which has been unseen for more than five decades.

Some of the stars interviewed include Amanda Barrie, Liz Fraser, Bernard Cribbins, Juliet Mills, Sally Geeson, June Whitfield, Shirley Eaton, Fenella Fielding and Jim Dale.

‘Carry On is the most successful and best-loved brand in British movie comedy history, influencing generations of comedians,’ said Mark Robinson, who executive produced the series for Shiver. ‘Stars like Sid James, Charles Hawtrey and Kenneth Williams have remained icons to this day, their faces and catchphrases known the world over.

‘It has been an incredible privilege for Shiver to make this series – and to reunite many of the stars with their Carry On pasts – taking them back to filming locations and showing them behind-the-scenes photos they had never seen before. We can promise plenty of surprises in store for Carry On fan.

The documentaries will be shown alongside back-to-back Carry On movies over the long weekend.
