The last Great Carry On
27 February 2005
This is another in the collection of the "Holidaying" Carry On's.I would disagree its a rip off or a simile of Camping..after all we never tired of Matron after Doctor & Again Doctor! This 1975 Outing, really is a classic.New on the scene is Writer Dave Freeman.Many would criticise this man for his later poor attempt at reviving the series in 1992..but i along with many would say the contributing factor of "Time" was to play..Anyhow! Freeman lays down the King of Hearts.

The series by this time was panning out.Sid James wasn't to star in it and Windsor set into that role.What a cracking performance he played with the well remembered "Ball Scene!" (I wont spoil it!) Behind as the setting headline says is truly the last of the "great" era.

Outstanding performances also from Peter Buttorworth & Jack Douglas and a nice return for Lis Fraser and a welcome to Elke Sommers. The film truly is a must see 8.4/10
