Carry On Screaming - Dan Dan The Lavatory Man Scene Featuring Charles Hawtrey...
The 1966 horror-comedy parody "Carry On Screaming!" features a standout scene with Charles Hawtrey as Dan Dann, the lavatory man. This film is part of the iconic "Carry On" series, known for its broad humor and ensemble cast.
Detective Sergeant Sidney Bung (Harry H. Corbett) and Constable Slobotham (Peter Butterworth) investigate disappearances linked to the nefarious Dr. Watt. Their inquiry leads them to public lavatories where they meet the eccentric Dan Dann.
Hawtrey's Dan Dann, with his effeminate manner and "Doo-dah, doo-dah!" catchphrase, interacts with the detectives in a campy, overly familiar way. His performance adds absurd comic relief to the farcical plot.
The scene exemplifies "Carry On" humor—rife with double entendres, playful banter, and slapstick. Hawtrey's portrayal stands out, showcasing his unique comedic style and contributing significantly to the film's charm.
This moment perfectly encapsulates the "Carry On" franchise's blend of character-driven comedy and genre satire, cementing "Carry On Screaming!" as a fan favorite in the series.
