Babs

She was a Cockney kid with a beautiful smile and a lot of talent. This is her story. Babs is getting ready to perform in the theater on a cold night in 1993. She talks about the people and events that have shaped her life and career over 50 years, from 1943 to 1993. She reflects on her lonely childhood and WWII evacuation, her decision to change her name from Barbara Ann Deeks to Barbara Windsor–inspired by Queen Elizabeth II's Coronation–her complicated relationship with her father, her doomed marriage to Ronnie Knight, attracting Joan Littlewood's attention and becoming the blonde bombshell in the Carry On films. Babs, who is always a professional, never disappoints her fans, no matter how much she is hurting. When she steps on stage, her fans give her rapturous applause.
