Amanda Holden is so saucy pals call her “Carry On Mandy” after the comedy films.
The Britain’s Got Talent judge, 52, loves cheeky jokes and innuendo.
For years she’s been a big fan of Carry On because of its British humour and sexy moments.

And she’d love nothing more than to star in one of the flicks herself.
She told the Daily Star Sunday: “I’m known as Carry On Mandy.
“I’d love to be in a Carry On film. I’d be the Barbara Windsor character, for sure.”
In recent years it has emerged there are plans to revive the Carry On franchise for two new movies.

They were originally expected to hit cinemas in 2017, but are still yet to be made after a string of issues.
Carry On flicks were famous for their gags about sex.
One of the most famous moments is when the late Dame Barbara’s bikini top flew off in 1969 instalment Carry On Camping.
Amanda reckons it’s her love for the films that helped her land a job fronting a new series about sex.

The mum-of-two said: “This show came up on my radar because I’m very Carry On Mandy.
“The series is a very tongue-in-cheek, light way to look at sex. It is very Carry On. That will be why they asked me to do it.”
Amanda even got to do her own Carry On-style photoshoot to promote the series, Sex: A Bonkers History, which starts Monday (September 18) on Sky History.

It sees her dress up as Egyptian queen Cleopatra by sitting naked in a bathtub — just like Amanda Barrie did in Carry on Cleo in 1964.
And she admits it was a massive thrill for her.
She said: “I was Cleopatra… I mean, I was like, ‘Yes, I am living my best life’.”
Amanda is hoping her new series will get Brits talking about sex.
She said: “It’s got a sense of humour and a sense of playfulness but also contains serious historical information.
“In the show I go, ‘Do try this at home!’ I’ve said that a lot!”
