Such a sad end to her life with the dementia. At least she’s now at peace.

Horrible illness.

Used to love the Carry On films as a kid.

And if you met her in real life, a charming, approachable and genuinely friendly person. A sad loss.

A household name for me, when growning up.
Now joined many others of that famous cast.

A story she often told.

Filming Carry on Camping. The famous scene where she loses her bikini.

Babes- " My feet and ankles are full of mud!"

Director - "If they're looking at your ankles love, you're doing it wrong!"

:lol:

RIP Barbara Windsor

Babs was of course best known for the Carry On's, and in her latter years the indomitable Peggy Mitchell, but it's worth mentioning she did a lot more than just those famous roles, not least several British movies in the early 1960's, of those Sparrows Can't Sing is most likely the best known.

She may have been small in stature, but she had a huge personality and screen presence, and these characters will live long in the memory.

RIP Babs

Some wonderful comedy actors on that picture - the Carry On films might have been of their time but they were damn funny.

They were funny.

Almost all the regulars are dead now. Peter Butterworth, Kenneth Connor et al.

Jim Dale is still alive, I think.
