Ooh doctor! Barbara Windsor and Jim Dale reunite to recreate THAT infamous Carry On scene as veteran stars turn out to support actor's one-man show



Ooh doctor! Barbara Windsor and Jim Dale reunite to recreate THAT infamous Carry On scene as veteran stars turn out to support actor's one-man show 

It's one of the most iconic scenes in the Carry On franchise, which made Barbara Windsor - and her cleavage - an instant hit with fans.
Now, 46 years after the film was released, the blonde bombshell has reunited with her Carry On Again Doctor co-star Jim Dale to recreate that notorious examination skit between their characters James Nookey and Goldie Locks.
The 77-year-old, looking sensational in a royal blue dress, hopped up onto a table while wearing similar heart-shaped nipple pasties which kept her dignity in tact in the 1969 comedy.

Oooh matron: The pair shocked viewers back in 1969 when Barbara's character Goldie Locks stripped down to just heart shaped pasties and thong as she was checked by Jim's James Nookey

Barbara gave one of her trademark chuckles as Jim, 79, donned a doctor's coat and pretended to check her with a stethoscope.
Their get-together may have been dramatically less risque than in their '60s hey-day, which Barbara is adamant is tame compared to today's standards of cinema.

The EastEnders legend told the Standard: 'You could never get away with Carry On films now. We have gone too far because back then to see a boob was shocking.'
The reunion was in honour of the actor's one-man show, Just Jim Dale, which premiered at the Vaudeville Theatre on Thursday night.

Heaping praise on her old pal, Barbara added: 'People don’t know how talented Jim is. They know him from falling down the stairs or staring at my boobs.'
The show sees Dale take a trip down memory lane, relaying stories from his varied career - which includes Oscar-nominated songwriter and Harry Potter audiobook narrator - as well as impressions of former co-stars, many of whom showed up to support the man of the hour.
Alongside Barbara, fellow former Carry On regulars including Anita Harris and Fenella Fielding turned up and greeted Jim with a hug.

Other veteran entertainers included Ronald Pickup, Derek Jacobi, and Charles Ray, while Sir Kenneth Branagh, Bonnie Langford, and Gaby Roslin also headed to the Vaudeville Theatre to catch the show.
Jim - who now lives in the US - admitted there was one person who wouldn't get many of the references, including his cosy reunion with Barbara - his wife Julia Schafler.
The star added to the Standard: 'My wife has never seen a Carry On film. One day we will get through the whole series. It was great fun.'
