Default Bond, Carry On and Hammer Stamps
Royal Mail are to issue a set of James Bond stamps next month with further sets featuring the Carry On and Hammer films later in the year. I'll be interested to see what images they use for the Carry On set.

The rule used to be that no living person apart from the monarch, or their immediate family, could appear on a British stamp. I am sure that rule has since been broken, so Barbara Windsor is a possability on the Carry On stamps!
Start every day with a smile and get it over with.

What about Charles Hawtrey dressed as Lady Something-or-Other from Carry On Again Doctor? He'd look just like a Queen on the Carry On stamps!

I really liked the Peter Sellers set from a few years back. Should be worth seeing.

They do deserve it, but there's a difference between being good at what you do and being well known to everyone
