Default Carry On actor Julian Holloway dies at 80 after brief illness




[British actor Julian Holloway, best known for
his appearance in eight Carry On films,
has died at the age of 80.

Theatrical agency Sharkey and Co said
he died on Sunday at the
Royal Bournemouth Hospital in
Dorset after "a brief illness".
Another agency, Damn Good Voices,
told the Press Association he
will be missed.
In the 60s and 70s, he played various
characters in eight of the cult
Carry On film series,
including Carry On Doctor,
Carry On Up The Khyber, and
Carry On Camping.

Holloway had a daughter,
the supermodel turned author Sophie Dahl,
who was born in 1976 to
British actress Tessa Dahl,
daughter of children's author Roald Dahl.]

Sad. RIP.

Also, Rick Buckler from The Jam.

Two legends, one music, the other movies and TV.

I thought he'd been in more, such was his presence in those movies. He starred in some of the best and most iconic entries of that series. RIP.
