Revision as of 13:48, 6 March 2006 by Shaneo619 (talk | contribs)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Carry On Abroad is the twenty fourth Carry On film, released in 1972. It was the last of the Carry On movies in which all the regular Carry On cast appeared together.
Plot outline:
Pub landlord Vic Flange (Sid James) hopes to take his girlfriend Sadie Tomkins (Barbara Windsor) away for a dirty weekend in the mediterranean, but his plans change fast when his wife (Joan Sims) comes along too. Together they are just three of the holiday-makers on Stuart Farquhar's (Kenneth Williams) 'Wundatours' package trip to the resort of Elsbels. Things start to go wrong when the group arrives at Pepe's (Peter Butterworth) unfinished hotel, spend a night in prison and find themselves drinking too much of the local "Liquora de l'amora".
Trivia
Pepe (Butterworth) constantly refers to Stuart Farquhar (Williams) as "Mr Farkyhars"
The Spanish town seen in the film was a standing exterior set at Pinewood Studios. It can also be seen in an episode of The Goodies titled The Movies.
Charles Hawtrey's last Carry On appearance. He was fired from the series due to his excessive drinking, which makes his character here - an alcoholic mummy's boy - all the more poignant.
The technical advisor for the film is listed in the credits as Sun Tan Lo Tion.
Memorable Quote
MR FARQUHAR : My name is Stuart Farquhar.
PEPE : Stupid what?
MR FARQUHAR : Stuart! Stuart Farquhar.
VIC FLANGE : I think he was right the first time!
