Carry On London Stage Show Rare Pictures

In September 2020 I was privileged to be given permission to feature some rare pictures from both the 'Carry On' stage shows;

 'Carry On London' (1973) & 'Carry On  Laughing (At The Slimming Factory)' (1976).

The pictures  had remained unseen for many years and were from the personal archive of the director of the shows, Bill Roberton.

They are reproduced here with kind permission of his daughter, Jane Brown along with two other pictures from the shows that I have managed to source independently.
