Producers of a new Carry On film insist the movie will still be made, despite losing cast members Danniella Westbrook and Shaun Williamson.

Carry On London was due in cinemas in December, with ex-EastEnders Westbrook and Williamson, but delayed when producer James Black was replaced reports BBC online.

"We are building up a new team and expect to start filming in 2005,"said Audra Woodburn of Carry On London Ltd.

It will be the 32nd film in the Carry On series, which began in 1958 and starred Sid James, Kenneth Williams, Hattie Jacques and Barbara Windsor.

Carry On London was launched in July 2003 at a House of Commons event that saw then-Conservative leader Iain Duncan Smith pose for photos alongside actress Danniella Westbrook.

Westbrook was billed as "the new Barbara Windsor" while Shaun Williamson, who played Barry Evans in EastEnders, was due to play chauffeur Dickie Ticker in the new film.

Written by Brian Leveson and Paul Minett, who wrote ITV comedy drama The Booze Cruise, Carry On London tells of a limousine firm hired to take celebrities to the Herberts - the British equivalent of the Oscars.

"Shaun was keen and ready to take part but the project was delayed for so long that he is now busy with other work," said Williamson's agent Melanie Sacre.

Danniella Westbrook is also no longer taking part in the film, her spokesperson confirmed, and ex-Spandau Ballet singer Tony Hadley no longer has a cameo role.

Carry On London will be directed by Terry Winsor, who worked on TV series Thief Takers and 1986 comedy Party Party.
