Spot on. TBH I am not really sure why the Stephen Fry audio book recordings were not used for the US market, instead of going to the expense of having Jim Dale also record them, much as I like and respect Jim Dale.

In Carry on Columbus, June Whitfield played Queen Isabella, but two other actresses had turned down the role. Can you name either of them?

Re: Let's Carry On.

I'm not totally confident, but I'll take a guess at Jim Dale, as I know he was a singer and did some stand-up when he was young.

Yes, sorry, meaning something they may have been in during my time unless they passed on before, have they been in a mainstream comedy from the late eighties or early nineties... Or soap.
