This one is too difficult for generally singling out, but for Williams. Otherwise, like the scripts, the performances varied in quality.

Don’t remember Sally Geeson for some reason. Perhaps it’s because I was too busy noticing Judy Geeson. :shock: :oops:

I'm going to go with Jim Dale from Carry On Screaming, A true classic & It featured Fenella Fielding, the sexiest Woman ever! :D

Actually Harry H Corbett was also good in this as was our Ken,

So there we are, my favorite performances & Carry On, not the best line though, I would give that to Kenny Williams in Carry On Cleo "Infamy, Infamy, they've all got It Infamy" :lol:

Sid James laugh tops eveything though, he didn't even need a line to get a laugh, just cackled, brillant,

Good on you, Tourist. I was going to put Butterworth because he's a favourite of mine, but I thought he'd be too minor a character for most people.

Now this is my kind of poll. It has to be Sid James for me closely followed by Kenneth Williiams.

Honorable mentions to..

Kenneth Connor: Nobody can do that muffled 'I suppose you think that's funny' thing after being hit on the nose like him.

Joan Simms: Does the best common woman putting on posh voice. Also cracks me up in Carry On Regardless getting drunk at a wine tasting evening.

Jim Dale: In most of the best Carry-Ons.
