It’s a welcome return to the Cinema Museum for the Michael Medwin interview tomorrow from 7.30pm. As an actor, Medwin starred in the first film Sid James made, ‘Black Memory’. He gave a memorable cameo as Kenneth Connor’s boxing manager in ‘Carry On Nurse’ and a wise-cracking turn in ‘Doctor at Sea’. In partnership with Albert Finney, Medwin became one of the most influential film producers of the 1960s and 1970s. Later work included the television series ‘Shoestring’ and the Mel Smith comedy ‘Colin’s Sandwich’. It promises to be a wonderful evening.
