Manage episode 430363882 series 3586574
Join Lee and Dave for a lighthearted look at the world of TV, Film and Popular Culture from yesteryear that has since been considered problematic. This week we delve into the world of 'Carry On' films with Carry On Girls from 1973. Harmless saucy fun? Feminist classic? Hmmm...... Where can we buy a swanee whistle?
Also, just where did Bananarama film the video for 'Cruel Summer? Spontaneous nightclubbing. And Dave's Madonna nightmare.
You can watch Carry On Girls in ITV X in the UK. Or rent it from iTunes.
