Editorial Reviews

[NON-U.S. FORMAT (PAL) Region 2 U.K. Import - This will not play on U.S./Canada DVD players or those from most other countries outside of Europe. You would need a "multi-region" or "region-free" PAL compatible DVD player or computer.] SYNOPSIS: The Carry On team throw caution to the wind and present a glorious wallow in good clean lavatorial humour! Kenneth Williams plays W.C. Boggs, the troubled owner of a small company trying to manufacture fine toiletware. Bolshy unionist Vic Spanner (Kenneth Cope) soon has the workforce out on strike and it's down to Boggs, his son Lewis (Richard O'Callaghan), works foreman Sid Plummer (Sid James) and floral-shirted designer Charles Coote (Charles Hawtrey) to rally the troops. But they soon discover that nothing sends you further round the bend than women scorned!

1.0 out of 5 stars GREAT FILM, LOUSY TRANSFER, July 16, 2001
By 
Darrin Lanchbury (Lake Charles, Louisiana United States) - See all my reviews
As I was born and bred in the UK I have fond memories of growing up to the various Carry-On films. Now I reside in the USA I decided to do a search to see if any Carry-On films were available in NTSC format, and to my joy I found this movie. Joy turned to disgust when I actually sat down and watched it - the conversion process from PAL to NTSC looks like it has been performed in somebody's garden shed on second hand video editing equipment. The picture is fuzzy and the soundtrack hisses like a ruptured high=pressure steam pipe. This is a great movie, but the quality of the tape means that it is nearly unwatchable. Until someone decides to remaster these films onto DVD I will not buy another one.

4.0 out of 5 stars The quintessential Carry on., January 31, 2000
I've always adored this movie which ranks as being one of the best Carry ons - definitely a favourite of mine. It cleverly satirises union strikes, sex education films and adult movies. Sid James is in top form as a factory worker, Jaques plays his dopey wife and Kenneth Williams his boss - WC Boggs! Patsy Rowlands has the films best line when the toiletware factory is about to close down: "What will happen to me. I've given my life to Boggs!" Interesting to see the English customs parodied in 1971 that have now, very sadly, "passed on" with most of the stars making the film seem all the more valuable and rare.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hillarious Blast From the Past, October 9, 2001
By 
Anyone who loves the 1970's and British comedies like a do will love this.A nostalgic journey into the past with delightful characters and non stop fun and side splitting laughter.

This one centers around a toilet factory , its incompetent management and a bolshy trade union-as well as all the asides which the whole crowd get us caught up in.
