Carol Hawkins(I)
- Actress
Blonde, beautiful and extremely likable are some of the many ways to
describe Carol Hawkins.
She first appeared on the screen in
The Body Stealers (1969) and in
a few other films following her debut. However, it is for her 'Carry
On...' film work which she is best remembered throughout the 1970s,
together with her role as Sharon Eversleigh in the TV series,
Please Sir! (1968).
Appearing in the very successful
Carry on Abroad (1972) as Marge,
her character was paired with 'Lily' played by
Sally Geeson, both of whom go off to the
Spanish Island, with the rest of the 'Carry On...' gang, looking for
love. Her contribution to the film was an important one and her
character is enjoyable to watch on-screen.
Her performance was so successful that she was asked back to be Sandra
in Carry on Behind (1975).
Although, not the best of the Carry On films she was certainly
memorable.
In addition to appearing in two Carry On films, she had also appeared
in
Carry on Again Christmas (1970).
Carol also appeared as a supporting player in the
Carry on Laughing (1975)
television series. Her place in 'Carry On...' history as a supporting
'Carry Oner' is certainly sealed.
In recent years, and with the decline of the British film industry,
Carol found work in television in comedy series like
My Husband and I (1987). It
is a shame that she has not done more work on television, however she
did appear in Doctors (2000) in 2004
playing "Pam Jordan" in an episode called "Getting On".
In recent times, Carol has appeared at some of the memorabilia events
at the NEC in Birmingham.
