Channel hopping at a most fortuitous moment this afternoon and guess what I spied in the background?

C'mon all you Ferrari aficionados - is there a story?

Maybe the owner was having a baby?

Or they had just won the "health lottery"...

My guess would be that it belonged to one of the cast.

Maybe Kenneth Connor ?

And that Morris 1300 GT belongs in the "Bad parking thread"

Apparently Carry On director Gerald Thomas owned a 1970 365 gt 2+2, it's currently in red, wire wheels RHD reg GGW 98J. 3 KWC is also seen in an earlier carry on film (Carry On Doctor) on an Aston DB5, also reportedly owned by Thomas at the time.
