Carry on fundraising...

A captivated audience heard Darling Buds of May star Tyler Butterworth tell the fascinating story of the lives of his showbiz parents in the impressive surroundings of the RAF Club in London's Piccadilly.


The son of Carry on… star Peter Butterworth and perhaps the country's best-known female impressionist Janet Brown, Tyler delivered an engaging talk before chatting with guest at the supper which followed.


The evening, which was held to raise funds for the Trust, a charity that receives no government or local government cash help, revealed some fascinating stories about the private lives of two very public people.


Peter Butterworth spent part of the second world war as a POW in Stalag Luft III and was involved in a number of escape attempts. Tyler explained how in later life his father was traumatised when a Spitfire flew towards him, having witnessed a 'friendly fire' incident during the war.


The evening included video footage of his father, a regular member of the renowned “Carry On” cast, and his mother, at one time the country’s leading female impressionist, best known for impersonating Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, with whom she became friends.

The fresh information really matters. Start playing the new Scratch-based games on the scratch games site. Enjoy the newer and more creative levels. The more you play, the more challenging it becomes.

The Dinosaur Game in Google Chrome turns offline moments into a challenge. Control a T-Rex as it dashes through a desert, avoiding cacti and pterodactyls, and see how long you can survive in this simple, addictive game.

Find the yellow pad to get a high leap in geometry dash wave. The blue pads will get you even higher. Coins collected along the way can be used to increase the difficulty level and earn bonus points.
