Doctor Who Vs. Agatha Christie's Poirot, Series 10

David Suchet returned as the

Queen of Crime's Belgian sleuth

for another four feature-length

serials, first shown in early 2006.

Ariadne Oliver (portrayed here by

Zoe Wanamaker) was a creation whom Christie said had "a strong

dash of myself".

 Oliver debuted in Cards on the

Table, where her own iteration of

 The Body in the Library is refer-

enced - that title was actually

used by Christie in 1942. Oliver

 featured in six further books, including The Pale Horse (pub-

lished in 1961), where she met

the Calthorps, friends of Miss

Marple from The Moving Finger,

whilst other works by Oliver were discussed by characters in The Clocks (1963). Like Christie and her contemporaries, the fictional writer was a member of the Detection

Club. A repeat run of the tenth season began on ITV3 tonight - it

featured William Russell (who celebrates his 99th birthday today),

and a total of thirty-seven Doctor Who cast and crew connections:

Doctor Who Vs. Dad's Army: The Animated Lost Episodes

Digital TV channel Gold recreated three lost episodes of the BBC's beloved wartime sitcom for their UKTV Originals strand. Dad's Army endured for eighty instalments over nine series (from 1968 to 1977), but a trio of stories remain lost from the archives.

Doctor Who Vs. Carry On @ 65

The Carry On franchise consists of thirty low-budget British comedy

features, produced from 1958 to 1978, whilst a final production was

released in 1992. 

Thames Television later screened four Carry On Christmas specials

between 1969 and 1973, followed by Carry On Laughing from ATV in

1975. The series also spawned three West End (1973-75) and regional

stage plays (1976 and 1992), and even an album in 1971.

Anglo Amalgamated Films produced the first dozen titles (until 1966),

and the Rank Organisation made the next nineteen. Writer Norman

Hudis (1922-2016) scripted the first six films, then was replaced by

Talbot Rothwell (1916-1981) who penned the next twenty. Every film

was made at Pinewood Studios in Buckinghamshire, with most location

filming undertaken nearby.

The films' humour (albeit dated and sexist by modern standards) was

in the comic tradition of the British music halls and bawdy seaside post-

cards. Producer Peter Rogers (1914-2009) and director Gerald Thomas

(1920-1993) made all thirty-one films, and drew on their own repertory

company of actors that included Kenneth Williams (who made 25 appear-

ances), Joan Sims (24), Charles Hawtrey (23), Sid James (19), Kenneth

Connor (17), Peter Butterworth (16), Hattie Jacques, Bernard Bresslaw

(14 each), Michael Nightingal (13), Jim Dale, Peter Gilmore (11),

Barbara Windsor (10), Patsy Rowlands, Marianne Stone (9), Julian

Holloway, Jack Douglas, Billy Cornelius (8), Terry Scott, Hugh Futcher,

Cyril Chamberlain, Gertan Klauber, Anthony Sagar (7), Lucy Griffiths

(6), Joan Hickson, David Lodge, Bill Maynard (5), Eric Barker, Bill Owen,

June Whitfield, Leslie Phillips, Liz Fraser, Dilys Laye, Angela Douglas,

Jacki Piper, Jon Pertwee (4), and Bernard Cribbins (3).

Hartnell (the titular officer,
Grimshawe) & Kenneth Connor

TV documentary What a Carry On? 
marked the fortieth anniversary of 
the series in 1998, and BBC Radio 
2 broadcast a two-part celebration
 in 2010. 
ITV first screened their three-part 
retrospective, also titled Carry On 
Forever, over Easter 2015.

This iconic franchise began sixty-

five years ago this summer with

the release of Carry On Sergeant

- shown on Sky Greats today.

Based on the play, The Bull Boys, 
by English novelist RF Delderfield, 
the comedy was never intended to 
launch any sequels, but due to its

box-office success, Carry On Nurse,

followed a year later. The rest is cinema history.

Led by William Hartnell, the cast here featured Charles Hawtrey, Norman Rossington (his co-stars from Granada's The Army Game),

Jacques, Bob Monkhouse, Shirley Eaton, Owen, and ten future
