Doctor Nookey is sent packing from his job, by a jealous rival, he lands up in a far away, tropical land, where he stumbles upon something wondrous.
Definitely meant to build and take advantage of the huge success of the original, wonderful Carry on Doctor. Where that managed to have at least one foot on the ground, this one is totally off the wall, it's madcap, crazy fun.
The first half of the movie is quite a sturdy affair, similar to the original, it all changes when Dr Nookey encounters Gladstone.
Typical postcard humour, bawdy laughs, beautiful women, and lots of moustaches. Lots to laugh at, including Hawtrey in drag, and a lustful Gladstone.
There is also the iconic scene of Barbara Windsor in her bikini. A small part for the wonderful Pat Coombes, why on Earth didn't she appear more.
Worth noting that Jim Dale did all of his own stunts, remarkable, the party sequence is seriously impressive, he must have been bashed about.
It never fails to make me laugh. 8/10.
