Synopsis

This caravan version of Carry On Camping marked the beginning of the end for the classic comedy series. Sid James and scriptwriter Talbot Rothwell (who'd notched up 20 Carry On credits) are missing, and regulars Bernard Bresslaw, Kenneth Connor and Joan Sims are restricted to supporting roles. Penned by series newcomer Dave Freeman, this woeful effort attempts to combine caravan-holiday capers and archaeological high jinks. The only fragments of fun come from Kenneth Williams and Elke Sommer as relic hunters on a dig - pity they couldn't have unearthed a decent script.
