    Re: Carry On Up The Khyber

    Watched a lot of the Carry On films as a kid, on "British Sunday Theater" here in the Pacific Northwest. It primed me for Monty Python.

    Just bought the box set of all of the Carry Ons... (for Sunday viewing.)

    Always remember the daffodil in Carry On Nurse.

    Re: Carry On Up The Khyber

    The scene in 'Carry on Camping' where Barbara Windsor loses her bikinin top and Kenneth Williams' 'Infamy! Infamy! They've all got it in-for-me' from Carry on Cleo must count as two of the most memorable moments in cinematic history.

    The scripts' humour was very seaside postcard, but rather endearing.

    The 3rd Foot and Mouth were fighting the Burpas - but Carry on Up the Khyber was rather less frothy than most of the carry ons - almost as thought they were trying take the script seriously.
