The "Carry On" Films
 

I used to love these films as a kid. I still look back at them fondly these days. There were so many good ones to choose from. "Carry On Screaming", "Carry On Cleo", "Carry On Up The Khyber"....lol.

The humour was/is genius and very reminiscent of an age gone past. I do miss the old days. :redface:

Innuendo and smut is a fine British Art form. Sadly missed ! Oh for another Benny Hill !

Careful that man !! ....... don't mention Benny ...... you'll have the PC brigade after you ...... :tongue:

Amazes me how he was villified, poor old chap, but yet there is way more explicit "smut" (for want of a better word) in the average R+B video shown on TV these days ........ the worlds gone quite mad methinks ................. :wink:

Nah " R & B videos are just so much excrement :D

Hello Soul Searching,

The late Franki Howard springs to mind as I read ths with his "Up Pompeii" series and if my memory serves, he also appeared n a carry on movie or two :smile:

Ooh Er Missus !! ....... Titter Ye Not !! ............ :tongue:

Good Old Ernie !! ................... :D

Oh I absolutely love the Carry Ons! Unforgettable stuff. I find the lives of the stars fascinating too although sadly quite a few of them had difficult issues to grapple with. Amazing actors/people all around. I think I started a thread on Charles Hawtrey after reading his biog some months ago - if you scroll down you might find it. His later life was swamped in regret and alcohol abuse and it struck me as very poignant that he was unable to cherish what he had achieved because was consumed with bitteness over what he had not. A sad lesson for us all. Anyway, will stop rambling now. Great films.

Julius Ceasar in Carry On Cleo. lol.
