Doctor Who Vs. Carry On Teacher

"Are you satisfied with your equipment Miss Allcock?"

"Well I've had no complaints before!"

Released in 1959, this production

(only the third entry in the iconic

British film franchise) was made to

capitalise on the popularity of the

 St. Trinian's features. Drayton

Green Primary in Ealing doubled

for fictional Maudlin Street School.

Series regulars Kenneth Williams, Charles Hawtrey, Joan Sims,

Hattie Jacques, Kenneth Connor,

 Cyril Chamberlain, and Leslie

Phillips were joined here by Ted Ray and Richard O'Sullivan in their sole

Carry On roles, whilst Rosalind Knight made her second appearance.

Shown on Great! TV last night, this comedy (again written by Norman Hudis) featured these seven Doctor Who cast connections:

• for Sims and Phillips see Carry On Nurse
• Jeremy Bulloch (Schoolboy) was Tor in The Space Museum, and Hal in The Time Warrior
• Sandra Bryant (Schoolgirl) was Kitty in The War Machines, and Chicki in (episode 1 of) The Macra Terror
• Jacqueline Lewis (Pat) was a Guardian in The Ark
• Ernest Blyth (Parent here; Guest in Carry On Girls) was a Villager in The Daemons
• Roy Hines (Harry) was the elder brother of Frazer Hines

Doctor Who Vs. James Bond, Part 13: Octopussy

ITV4's lastest Bond season continued last night

with Roger Moore's sixth and penultimate assign-

ment as Agent 007. The title of Eon's thirteenth

production was taken from Ian Fleming's 1966

anthology, Octopussy and the Living Daylights.

Although an original screenplay, this story was

loosely based on another short story, The

Property of a Lady.

Main location filming was undertaken in India,

England and Berlin, interiors were filmed at Pine-

wood studios, and Rita Coolidge provided the

opening theme song.
