Coming up on Television

One of Our Dinosaurs Is Missing Find on BBC iplayer
Youngsters who like their prehistoric monsters to rampage around theme parks aren't going to be particularly impressed by this offering from Disney, in which a top-secret formula is hidden by aristocrat Derek Nimmo inside the skeleton of a dinosaur at the Natural History Museum in London. There's not even a sniff of a velociraptor, but there is Peter Ustinov as a Chinese agent and Helen Hayes leading a gang of nannies that even Mary Poppins would be hard-pressed to join. A couple of kung fu fights, a very silly car chase and some wildly over-the-top acting help liven things up. (Starring:Hnup Wan*Peter Ustinov|Hettie*Helen Hayes|Quon*Clive Revill|Lord Southmere*Derek Nimmo|Emily*Joan Sims|Fan Choy*Bernard Bresslaw|Susan*Natasha Pyne|Superintendent Grubbs*Roy Kinnear|BJ Spence*Joss Ackland|Harris*Deryck Guyler|Lord Castleberry*Andrew Dove|Truscott*Max Harris)

Carry On Dick
Packed with more than the usual number of smutty innuendos, this spoof on period adventures, ranging from George Arliss in Dr Syn to the bodice-rippers starring James Mason and Margaret Lockwood, does not live up to the team's previous best. It is chiefly memorable for being Sid James's 19th and last Carry On. He plays feared highwayman Dick Turpin, who masquerades as country vicar the Reverend Flasher. Also playing a double role, Barbara Windsor gives one of her best performances of the series as Turpin's sidekick, while Jack Douglas is good value as the bungling Bow Street runner who simply hasn't a clue. (Starring:Dick Turpin / Reverend Flasher*Sidney James|Harriet / Harry*Barbara Windsor|Captain Desmond Fancey*Kenneth Williams|Martha Hoggett*Hattie Jacques|Sir Roger Daley*Bernard Bresslaw|Madame Desiree*Joan Sims|Constable*Kenneth Connor|Tom "Doc" Scholl*Peter Butterworth|Sergeant Jock Strapp*Jack Douglas)
