Dilys Laye, born Dilys Lay, (11 March 1934 – 13 February 2009), was an English actress best known for his appearances in the ''Film/CarryOnSeries''.

Her first appearance on stage was as a boy in ''The Burning Bush'' at the age of 14 and a year later she made her first film appearance in ''Trottie True''.

Throughout TheFifties, she appeared in many West End revues and was the first Dulcie in ''Theatre/TheBoyFriend''. By the end of the decade, she began appearing in more films. Four days before filming was due to start on ''Film/CarryOnCruising'', Creator/JoanSims fell ill and Laye was cast at short notice to fill the role of Flo Castle, and would return to the ''Film/CarryOnSeries'' a further three times.

In 2006 she was diagnosed with cancer, but continued to make appearances on stage and TV.

She died from lung cancer at the age of 74, living six months longer than she was predicted to.
