A Bit of a Carry On
Written and Presented by Tyler Butterworth
​
Darling Buds of May actor Tyler Butterworth tells the funny, moving and unashamedly nostalgic story of his much-loved parents, the nation’s first female TV impressionist Janet Brown, and the inimitable Carry On star Peter Butterworth.
​
From heroic wartime escapades at POW camp Stalag Luft 111, to a night at Chequers with Mrs Thatcher, A Bit of a Carry On is a warm and uplifting journey from wartime to showtime, taking us deep into the golden age of British TV & film comedy - With classic film and tv clips and rare photographs, A Bit of a Carry On is your chance to really get to know two of British comedy’s brightest stars, who lived to make us laugh
Very funny and very moving. I so enjoyed it.” Alison Steadman OBE
