Carry on Dame

Carry on Dame

That giggle that wiggle and a saucy laugh to boot,
Star of film, theatre and tv,
A naughty bubbly blond in a small package,
Some called her brassy she was just full of fun,
A part in a St Trinians film a school girl was her role,
She acted with some famous names in other films,
Butt carrying on was her game,
One famous scene never to be forgotten was in carry on camping and that top,
She knew some well known people even some on the wrong side of the law, it never changed her,
There where a few lean years parts here and there,
Then came along Eastenders and her catch phrase,
                      "Get out of my pub",
A hit a star she was queen of the vic,
She was a hit even with the queen in 2016 when she became a dame,
A woman like barbara always ready for a laugh,
Alzheimer's took that away from her when she forgot family and friends,
Peacefully she passed aged 82,
The gang's back together up there carrying on.

Hi TRACY!!.....This is a fine tribute piece.....and a finely phrased piece of poetic prose to say the least.....But I have to admit.....I recognize her face VERY well but I am loathe to say I cannot recall her name no matter how hard I try.....could you please PM me and let me know who she was and stuff!!....I'd appreciate that VERY much!!......ALL STARS!!....well done dear poet sister!!
PS. It's driving me crazy because I'm one of the biggest "Film Nuts" you'll ever encounter and I'm dying for you to tell me ~ Thanx So Much!!  : )

Although I didn`t know her (uncultured, don`t know of anyone born before 1990!) Your tribute really gave insight into her personality and talent as an actor. Just loved it. Peace and smiles to you. TFOTS

Not a royal,
Yet he was a king,
Rocking and rolling,
