As far as I remember, Norman Wisdom wasn't in any of these.

Jim Dale was in Digby, and in the Carry On movies.

Bernard Bresslaw was in One Of Our Dinosaurs Is Missing, and in the Carry On movies.

I don't remember anyone who appeared in all those movies.

It's not my fault someone hijacked the thread with Norman Wisdom - I was responding to the original thread topic
