    Yeah they are absolutley brilliant. I collected all of them a few years back a magazine and dvd every 2 weeks. No matter how many times I watch them I still laugh

    I loved these! I was only young and didn't really get the soft porn aspect but loved it still.

    I kinda fancied the really thin big nosed nerdy black haired guy, usually a snotty surgeon who said 'OOOUUUUUUU' quiet a lot.

    Weird!:rolleyes:

    didn't he kill himself because apparently he was very depressed in real life that no one ever took him seriously including when he asked girls out?

    I love those films, especially camping, at your convenience and girls, not forgetting carry on abroad at els bels!!

    Ohhhhh not half........

    Sid James and his laugh are legendary! I was a big fan and still love the films,a combination of innocence and double entendre.:)

    Kenneth Williams was repressed homosexual in real life and trained as a serious stage actor. He thought he was above everyone else and despised Sid James. He had many run ins over pay if someone was getting paid more than him. Barbara Windsor married his brother afaik before having an affair with Sid James.
    Kenneth died in the late eighties after overdosing. A tormented soul but a great actor who helped make carry ons what they are today, classics

    I've seen the Doctor and Police one but the one I used to watch a lot was Carry On Camping. They had a lot of sexual undertones.

    The last couple of ones were terrible,most of the main actors had left at that point.There was one in particular about army recruits,dire stuff.

    mostly enjoyable - have the box set.

    also recommend the Confessions... films and On The Buses [sitcom and films]

    Loved these as a kid, the smutty humour almost had a different meaning for kids as well as adults.

    Barbara Windsor was interviewed on Piers Morgan on Saturday night, very interesting life story too! :) She can tell quite a few tales!
