Welcome to the site, and you've ingratiated yourself immediately by bringing up a favourite Bunker theme. If you're serious..... then The Khasi of Kalabar takes some beating.

Tom, Carry on Films represent cringeworthiness taken to its highest state. They are for avid masochists only. When people say they like them, it's in the same kind of way might they say they'd love to have their arms and legs amputated.
We used to have wonderful British films with subtle black humour like the Ealing comedies (http://www.screenonline.org.uk/film/id/ ... index.html) starring real actors like Alistair Sim, Alec Guinness, Joan Greenwood, and even Sidney (notice the "ney") James having an honest bash at acting. Then some nutter had the bright idea of making a film of the St Trinian books (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Trinian's_School) and found the lowest common denominator on his very first attempt, thus giving birth to a new genre which gradually metamorphosed into the Carry on Films.

Complete and utter shite! :razz:

Come on Monty, you can't just write them all off like that. Indeed there were some grim moments but there are many many gems too.

it must be an age thing as i agree totally with monty
these films were a vehicle for second rate so called british film stars who collectively couldnt get into a school panto

Oh I watched plenty of them but it wasn't for the laughs: it was mainly to see Barbara Windsor/Liz Frazer/Amanda Barry's tits! :laugh:

the scene in "Carry On Up The Khyber" where they are having dinner while they're under attack is the funniest thing ever committed to celluloid. FACT

Montpoolier · **Posted:** Fri Dec 21, 2007 4:28 pm

No it isn't. The funniest thing ever committed to celluloid has to include Peter Sellers for a start.

Kenneth Williams was brilliant in Round the Horne, especialy as rambling Sid Rumpoe and Sandy and Jool the two pooftahs.

Now that's what I call music.

Lady D'Arbanville, one of my all time favourites.

My favourite Carry On is 'Screaming', although most of the others, especially the hospital ones, are rubbish. The best known line from the film is Kenneth Williams’ “Frying tonight!” but my personal favourite is Fenella Fielding’s Virula seductively lounging on the chaise longue, asking the policeman played by Harry H Corbett “Do you mind if I smoke?” as her whole body becomes clouded by white swirls!

Terry Scott's voice was perfect for Danger Mouse though

I thought the Carry On films were great. Sadly mass exposure on UK Gold has ruined the humour but they are still worth watching when there's nothing else on telly

Scene: Hrundi V. Bakshi has just blown up the expensive film set before the cameras got a chance to turn.

Hrundi V. Bakshi: Me?
Director: Yes, you. Get off of my set, and out of my picture! Off, off!! You're washed up, you're finished!!! I'll see to it that you never make another fillum again!!!!
Hrundi V. Bakshi: Does that include television, sir?
