Carry On Camping has got to be one of my favourite films. I am not usually a fan of 'old' films , so it is quite strange that I like this film. I could watch it over and over again without getting tired of it.

Carry On Camping is a British comedy film, released in the United Kingdom on May 29th 1969. It was directed by Gerald Thomas and stars Barbara Windsor (Peggy in Eastenders) and Sid James as well as a few other well known actors. Running time of the movie is 88 minutes. The film is a PG.

Carry On Camping begins with Sid and Bernie taking their girlfriends Joan and Anthea to the cinema to watch a film about camping. Because the film contains a lot of nudity , the men think it would be an excellent idea to go on a camping trip ; thinking that it will be similar to what they seen on screen.
When they arrive at the camping site , the boys are disappointed by the fact that this is actually a family camping site and not as they had hoped a 'nudist' camping site , like the camping site they had seen on the film at the cinema.
Although they are soon cheered up by the arrival of some girls (including the ever so funny , Barbara Windsor) from the finishing school Chayste Place. What will happen on this Camping trip ? Watch Carry On Camping to find out!

This film is a laugh-a-minute! The jokes are actually funny and not too cheesy like some of the British films you get these days! After watching this film , it makes you feel good to call yourself British!
This must be one of the best British films ever!
One of the funniest scenes in the film , is the one where Barbara Windsor's bra explodes during an exercise session! It is a very scene!

Although this film has a very simple story , it is very effective indeed.

Barbara's character is my favourite one in this film , as she's so cheeky yet innocent with it! I cannot believe it's Peggy from Eastenders! All the actors and actresses play their parts really well.

One thing I did find about the film is that because there was so many main characters , sometimes it was hard to keep up with names. I can't remember her name , but the woman with the horrible laugh got on my nerves. I didn't mind her character so much but her laugh really annoyed me.
I thought the relationship between DR Soaper and the Matron was very funny especially in the tent!

There are many laughs to had with this film! It's definitely a feel good film!

Charlie Muggins: Hello. What's a nice girl like you doing with an old cow?
Girl with cow: I'm taking her to the bull.
Charlie Muggins: Well couldn't your father do that?
Girl with cow: No it must the the bull.

Dr. Kenneth Soaper: Barbara dear, do you think your quite suitably dressed for travelling?
Babs: Oh but sir, we were told to bring the minimum of clothing.
