Carry On Mark

@Giantdaz72 They're both very enjoyable, have a great array of familiar Carry On faces like Bob, Kenneth Connor, Eric Barker, Charles Hawtrey, Shirley Eaton, Richard Wattis etc. Talking Pictures channel quite often show them.

@Petwill1 The names of the movies are an exact copy of the Doctor series, that's why I was thinking that, I've never seen the Dentist movies, I love the Doctor movies % Carry On so I must give them a go

These two gems just came in the post, Bob Monkouse's ill fated attempt to rival the Carry On film's. It's a great short lived little series though, and I'm glad to finally own them.

Watching Munsters Go Home, haven't seen this for years. This must've been one of the first spin-off films from a sitcom, but The Army Games "I Only Arsked" definitely came before it.

@Giantdaz72 It has a feeling of the Doctor films, but also feels a bit like an early Carry On. But Bob himself said he'd like them to be a similar series to the Carry Ons, even one of the taglines on the poster has a reference to Carry On.

@Petwill1 Probably more likely trying to rival The Doctor movies

@kentishphotos Good stuff, very enjoyable little pair of films.

@Petwill1 I'm pleased to say I have both.

@Wiseassonthhil2 On The Job is the better one in my opinion, but In The Chair is very enjoyable as well, Talking Pictures channel seems to show it fairly regularly. Yes, seems a bit foolhardy, and even with the great Monkhouse at the helm there's only so many films you can make about Dentists.

@deadwood1976 It's great, the better of the two in my opinion.

@Petwill1 On the job is a great film

@mickpr1 Great little comedy double bill, good set of recurring cast members as well.

@Petwill1 Very enjoyable

Morning Blokes and Birds. Home Shattered and Stinking. Gonna Scoff Bubble and Squeak, Digestive Creams, Strawberry Yoghurt, Jelly Babies, Slurp Cherry Coke and Watch the 50s classic Tarantula.

As incredible as it sounds, I don't believe I've watched a Marx Bros film this year, so this afternoon's gem is A Night At The Opera.

@carryontitterin Yes, very much a blink and you'll miss it appearance. No problems.

@Petwill1 Oh wow! Never noticed that. Much like the fleeting glimpse we get of Penelope Keith in Doctor then. Thanks Mark!

“Don’t tell him Pike!” Here are 13 actors that appeared in two iconic British franchises - Dad’s Army and the Carry On films.

@carryontitterin He does actually appear very briefly, probably a second, when Kenneth opens the door we see him standing with his back to camera, it then cuts to Hattie Jacques sat on her chair and coming in to Kenneth'soffice, which would've been the following scene.

BONUS! James Beck James played Private Walker from the beginning of Dad’s Army until his sudden death in 1973 at age 44. He filmed a scene for Carry On Loving with Kenneth Williams and Yutte Stensgaard, but unfortunately this scene was cut and he never appeared in a Carry On.

Having a Brew in my Back To The Future Mug and Watching the Gene Wilder film Sherlock Holmes Smarter Brother, haven't seen this for nearly 30 years.

Having a Brew in my Boris Karloff Frankenstein Mug and Watching Naked Gun.

@carryontitterin Not a Babs fan at all I'm afraid, so I'd have quite happily recast Dilys in most of her roles. In others she could've just had smaller roles, similar to Marianne Stone etc.

@Petwill1 That would've been interesting! But which Babs/Joan/Hattie characters would we have lost?

That delectable Mavis Winkle, aka Dilys Laye, would have been 92 today. ❤️ Flo Castle in Carry On Cruising. Lila in Carry On Spying. Mavis Winkle in Carry On Doctor. And who can forget Anthea Meeks from Carry On Camping - watch out for that bacon and tomato! 🥓🍅

@MrsMitoMermaid Thanks Mrs T, I certainly think so.

Just had 21 bluray Universal horror films come in the post, £160 very well spent. Gonna have to work my way through them yet again, thinks I'll start with Frankenstein.

@carryontitterin No worries mate.

@Petwill1 Course he is - with Melita Manger. Thanks for the correction Mark. 👍

A lot of people ask me who’s still alive from the Carry On films. The answer is a lot more people than you think! Here’s 50 people that appeared in at least 1 Carry On film still alive…

@carryontitterin His last Carry On was actually Behind, he's the guy serving salad when Windsor Davies beach ball upends it.

Billy Cornelius (born 1934) Perhaps best known as Oddbod Junior in Screaming, Billy appeared in several Carry Ons, starting off in Cleo and leaving the series after Dick. Billy is also credited in the very first Doctor Who adventure ‘An Unearthly Child’ from 1963. 👹👺
