Win the first four Carry On films on Blu-ray
The first four brilliant Carry On films were recently remastered and restored in HD, and we have three copies of the resulting Blu-ray box set to give away.
Going right back to the less saucy, but no less wonderfully funny early days of the iconic comedy series, the set comprises of Carry On Sergeant (1958), Carry On Nurse (1959), Carry On Teacher (1959) and Carry On, Constable (1960).
Boasting stars such as Bob Monkhouse, Leslie Phillips, Sidney James, Kenneth Connor, Hattie Jacques, Kenneth Williams, Charles Hawtrey, Shirley Eaton, Dora Bryan, Ted Ray and many others, the films are a joyous snapshot of Britain on the cusp of the vivacious 1960s.
All penned by Norman Hudis, produced by Peter Rogers and directed by Gerald Thomas, the new HD-quality picture is nothing short of remarkable - like watching the films anew, for the very first time - making this set a drool-worthy must-own for any self-respecting Carry On or classic comedy fan. You'll feel like you're there on the parade ground at Heathercrest National Service Depot!
Released by an Australian company and fully compatible with UK players and televisions, the set also includes the original audio commentaries recorded for the first UK DVD releases with historian Robert Ross and a number of the films' stars.
Ahead of Collection 2 - including the fifth to eighth films in the series - arriving in the summer we have copies of this first brilliant Blu-ray set to give away.
