Carry On Girls was shown by Olive House in Newton Flotman in honour of Anne Loxam, 92, a former dancer, performer and actress.

The 1973 flick sees her acting alongside Sid James and Barbara Windsor as a saboteur, adding a box of itching powder into bathing costumes worn at a beauty parade.

Kerry Gooda, manager at Olive House said: 'We knew Anne had performed in several films and it was lovely to create the special cinema screening to show the film to all.

'I think everyone can recall at least one of the Carry On films from the series and it was a great evening of enjoyment and reminiscing.

'While dancing was Anne's real passion, she was delighted to share in her memories of acting in the well-known shows.' Dave Land set up the film.
