I've been watching (on and off) the UKTV three day Carry On marathon, and wow, there's a lot of Carry On's I hadn't seen!
The oldest ones are def. the best, with the majority of the cast faves present. (duh, obvious). Any of the movies without Sid James in particular, seem sadly lacking.
Even though I'm a filthy bitch in general, I like the saucy double entendre-y humour of the early ones more than the just plain smutty humour of the ones made in the seventies.
Casual observations:
* the addition of Frankie Howerd is always welcome! He doesn't have to do a great deal to have me in stitches!
*Jim Dale was a pretty little thing in his time!
*I love how dignified Hattie Jacques remains, even in the most undignified of circumstances!
*Kenneth Williams rocks. Period.
Hmm...I wonder if there is a drinking game?
eg 1 sip ever time Babs Windsor giggles or Sid James does his filthy laugh
2 sips if Babs has her norks nearly falling out
3 sips if Charles Hawtrey says 'ooooh hello...'
4 sips if Kenneth Williams says 'stop messin' about'
etc etc heheheheheh.

I don't fancy its chances much.
How the heck did you manage that? That's some achievement ;D
