I hope they won`t be as bad as 'Carry On Columbus'. Julian Clary was embarrassing.

Surely not? In these days of PC and all that how can they possibly make new Carry-Ons? The whole Carry-On ethic was that they are entirely un-PC.

I dread to think what they'll come up with then. Gone and done with all the sexist gags, mother-in-law jokes, girls wearing next-to-nothing to lure leering old blokes, or ridiculous pairings and situations. Jeez what are we left with after that?

[Charley Says...]

I don't think it will work...
Don't ruin the classics...

They planned to do it before with the likes of Shane Richie and Vinnie Jones but it fell through. Bewildering they are going into production again,

Kenneth Williams et al will be turning in their graves and he didn't even like doing the films....... smiley-yikes

No one will ever beat the classics
Carry On Cleo...."Infamy Infamy - they`ve all got it in for me"
Carry on Jack... "What`s that plaque on the deck? That`s where Nelson fell. I`m not surprised, I almost tripped over the blooming thing myself"
And my fave quote from Carry On Loving
I saw you over at the tobacconists Sidney Bliss chatting up the girl behind the counter. But love, I gotta have my shag.
lol

It seems to me that Writers these days can't come up with anything original so just rehash old ideas.

One things for certain

They will NEVER re-write Love Thy Neighbour!

And definitely not 'Til Death Us Do Part' either

I'm rather suprised to see On the Buses being shown in the late afternoons because you know how sexist that is, but then I guess the PTB are slapping themselves on the back congratulating themselves on being so DARING and hoping some bunch of feminists are too busy demonstrating elsewhere to notice!

Loved the Carry On films with their mixture of saucy seaside postcard innuendo and a kind of innocence of the time. Not quite sure why they are making another two when the previous Carry on Columbus was such a turkey, nearly all the original cast are now dead and it just probably wouldn't appeal to today's stand up very near the knuckle comedy fans. They should just leave them alone IMO.

Probably dismissed as "BANTER" if anyone complains!

Some more info about the two new Carry On films. It seems (in my opinion) that they`re pushing the gay agenda to insult both gay and non gay people. And I don`t think it will go over all that well with loyal Carry On fans. What a shame. With the right scripts, it had the potential to be classic slapstick comedies like the other ones of the 50`s, 60`s and 70`s.
Still, I could be mistaken, and the films could be funny. I would love to be proved wrong.

Ooh matron – the first of the new Carry On films is set to tackle the ongoing NHS funding crisis.



Carry On Doctors will be released next year and producer Jonathan Sothcott, revealed: “The NHS is the best thing in the world. But it’s also something that we British love to grumble about – we will be addressing the crisis.



“The Carry On films have always had this great relationship with the NHS, because they spoof it – but they are also actually very protective of it.



“It’s important the film reflects what is going on.” He added: “Also, everyone in Britain still gets embarrassed to go to the doctor and pee into a test tube. That’s a very British thing.”


Hattie Jacques’ matron character will now be played by a “butch gay” man.



There has only been one gay character in the films – in the 1972 Carry On Abroad. Gay actor Kenneth Williams repressed his sexuality during his life.



The second film will be Carry On Campus, but none of the original cast will return, including Barbara Windsor.



Jonathan said: “Barbara spent the best part of 20 years trying to reinvent herself. She has moved on with her life.”
