8/10
The second best Carry on Film
18 November 2023
RANKING: it's a close call between this and SCREAMING as to which is the best one. Whereas SCREAMING, the 'Hammer Horror' parody in my opinion just about has the edge over this, UP THE KHYBER is probably ranked by everyone else as number one. This is probably the funniest of the whole series - it's jamb-packed with more jokes per minute than any other one. You can watch this one over and over again.

TYPICAL: this is the one most people would think of when asked to name a Carry On film. It's got virtually all the classic cast with the exception of Jim Dale who's replaced here with Roy Castle. The humour is racy but not rude.

There's actually two typical types of Carry On films - the period ones like this and the 'modern dress' ones like CAMPING.

SEXY LADIES: The other essential of a Carry On film is saucy, sexy ladies and in this one we have not so much saucy and sexy but sweet and lovely in the form of Angela Douglas.
