Carry On No.2
18 April 2020
The first was not made as a series, it was a one off, but since it was successful, they made a second, still no intention to go much further, so there was not much change from the first.

Not the greatest Carry-on, but it does have some of the team, Joan Sims, June Whitfield, Leslie Phillips do their first, for Charles Hawtrey, Kenneth Williams, Kenneth Conner and Hattie Jacques its the second and Bernard Bresslaw (well his legs) is uncredited. Most have passed away now, except Leslie Phillips, he is still going strong at 96. The main roles are Shirley Eaton and Terence Longden who were part of the early Carry-on Team, along with Norman Rossington, Bill Owen, others that were seasoned British actors doing a turn were Wilfrid Hyde-Whyte, Joan Hickson, Irene Handl and Jill Ireland.

Its more of a comedic melodrama, but well made and well acted, particularly the amateur operation scene. Made in the same style as CO Sergeant, but a different situation and about the same quality as that.
