Right then.

Barbara Windsor ('Babs'), was the name of a Land Speed Record car, last driven on Pendine Sands*, where Jeremy Clarkson (& co) have tested various cars**, Rowan Atkinson (snake-connection) played Parry-Thomas (the driver of Babs) in a film?TV special .



* The car was an aero-engined, chain-driven special & during a run at over 170MPH***, the drive chain snapped sadly decapitating Parry-Thomas.
Babs was buried in the sand & years later dug up & restored. It now (normally) resides in The Museum Of Speed at Pendine

** Now closed to non-essential motor-vehicles. Thanks Jeremy!!!

*** I've been on Pendine & the mere thought of attempting more than perhaps 40MPH with patches of soft-sand is not nice (I got bogged on there with the tide coming in)
He was a brave man


Parry-Thomas

Museum Of Speed

I hope I explained that well enough to be coherant?
