The archetypal crafty cockney, Sid James was in fact born Sidney Joel Cohen in Johannesburg. Presiding genius of the immortal Carry On series, Sid is also remembered as the perfect foil to Tony Hancock, both on radio and later on television.
Sid rubbed shoulders with the great and good of Hollywood, including Charlie Chaplin, Burt Lancaster and Lana Turner. He also battled opposite such top-line comedians as Arthur Askey, Stanley Holloway and Peter Sellers, sang with Tommy Steele and even danced with Joe Brown. Sid's classic television sitcoms included Citizen James, George and the Dragon, Two In Clover and the celebrated Bless This House.
Interest in Sid James is higher than ever - he was recently the subject of the hugely successful National Theatre production and television play Cor Blimey!, which presented a dramatised account of his affair with Barbara Windsor.
The Complete Sid James is the indispensable guide to a career that began in South Africa and came to a premature end on the stage of the Sunderland Empire. Compiled with the full support of those who knew Sid best, this is a fitting tribute to a star whose legend lives on. |
