Overview
This really could be the narrative of Dame Barbara Windsor, the Cockney kid with ability and a grin . Preparing to perform evening in 1993, the glowing, chirpy Babs recounts events and the people which have shaped her entire life and livelihood over fifty years. She contemplates her lonely youth and WWII evacuation, her decision to go from Barbara Ann Deeks into Barbara Windsor - inspired by the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, her complicated relationship with her father, her doomed marriage to Ronnie Knight, catching the interest of Joan Littlewood and becoming the blonde bomb shell from the Carry On films. Babs, ever the consummate professional, never permits her fans down whatever steps on the stage and her anguish to rapturous applause.
