Cameo roles in films - Page 2 - Britmovie

Donna will probably know this one. In It’s a Great Feeling Doris Day plays a waitress trying to break into films. To this end she assisted by Jack Carson and Dennis Morgan and several stars under contract to Warner Bros at that time. Doris worries throughout the film whether she would be better off back in her home town married to fiancé Jeffrey Bushdinkle. When the identity of Jeffrey is revealed at the end of the film, we know why!

Incidentally the term ‘cameo’ was coined for the Mike Todd production of Around the World in 80 Days

Hattie Jaques made a very brief appearance as a fortune teller in Hanclocks Punch and Judy Man.

How about Spike Milligan popping up in "Life of Brian." and the "Love thy Neighbour spinoff and also Frankie Howard in the Ladykillers.
