Stanley Holloway stylish pop art print.

The Lavender Hill Mob

Whilst initially working on “Pool of London“, the writer T.E.B. Clarke reportedly got the idea for “The Lavender Hill Mob“. The film sees Alec Guinness & Stanley Holloway as members of a criminal gang who plot to steal gold bullion which will be melted down and smuggled abroad.

Crime couldn’t be seen to pay in 1951 so the scheme is thwarted but, as with most Ealing comedies, the audience is willing on the main characters to succeed.

The film also features Sid James, John Gregson, and a brief cameo by Audrey Hepburn before she became an international star. The following year she was cast in “Secret People” which led to her successful screen test for “Roman Holiday”.

The Lavender Hill Mob” had its charity world premiere at the Marble Arch Odeon cinema in London on the 28th of June 1951.

Stanley Holloway

Along with Alec Guinness, Stanley Holloway is one of the actors most closely associated with the Ealing comedies.

Starting with “Another Shore” in 1948, Holloway went on to star in the Ealing comedies “Passport to Pimlico” with Barbara Murray, Basil Radford, Naunton Wayne, Charles Hawtrey, & Margaret Rutherford, “The Lavender Hill Mob” with Alec Guinness, John Gregson, & Audrey Hepburn, “The Titfield Thunderbolt” with John Gregson, George Relph, & Sid James, and finally “Meet Mr. Lucifer” with Barbara Murray, Gordon Jackson, Joan Sims, Ian Carmichael, & Irene Handl.

A prolific performer, just some of Stanley’s credits include “No Love For Johnnie” with Dennis Price & Fenella Fielding, “Ten Little Indians” with Shirley Eaton & Dennis Price, “Sing as We Go!” with Gracie Fields, “Meet Me Tonight” with Jack Warner, “The Way Ahead” with David Niven, “Brief Encounter” with Irene Handl, “The Magic Box” with Richard Attenborough, Joyce Grenfell, William Hartnell, Sid James, Cecil Parker, Dennis Price, Margaret Rutherford, & Norman Wisdom, “The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby” with George Relph, “Bikini Baby” with Diana Dors, Dennis Price, Sid James, Joan Collins, & Alastair Sim, “An Alligator Named Daisy” with Diana Dors, “Jumping for Joy” with Frankie Howerd, “On the Fiddle” with Sean Connery & Cecil Parker, “The Sandwich Man” with Bernard Cribbins, Terry-Thomas, Norman Wisdom, Earl Cameron, & Diana Dors, “Up The Front” with Frankie Howerd & Madeline Smith, “Snowbound” with Herbert Lom & Dennis Price, “One Night with You” with Christopher Lee, and “The Winslow Boy” & “The Way to the Stars”, both with Basil Radford.

Holloway is well-known to many as Eliza Doolittle’s father in “My Fair Lady” where he was reunited with Audrey Hepburn having both appeared in “The Lavender Hill Mob”.
