Just watching Carry on Cabbie.  I am always struck by Hattie Jaques in these films, that whichever character she played, she never believed she was anything less than 100% sexy.  I know that this was not the case in real life, so in a way, credit to the writers for writing her characters in this way, especially at a time when sexism was so rife but really, does that have anything to do with it?  I guess I'm really thinking about body image.  As women we have come so far, but we are so shackled by perceptions of how we should look and how little we should weigh.  It is all so sad.
