Carry on Cleo - Infamy

[joben1975]

these are classic films the humour could never be repeated i have all 30 films and watch them regularly

[Deltateam210]

Couldn't stop laughing today watching Carry On Behind, brilliant film, Kenneth Williams was my fav character

[LaughingPsycho]

People slags these films off, but will then go and see tripe like Scary Movie, Meet The Spartans and similar.

It's a shame Carry On London is in limbo.

[MichaelJackson4eve39]

Well , those lines are undeniably the funniest ever but look at the background : Take a look at Hengist pod :DD

[cobwebb56]

my favourite line of all the carry on gags, infamy..............pure genius

[PeterR132]

Watching this on ITV3, oooh matron!

[DANNYH8497]

You dont get better lines than this.....

[zakalwe101]

I laugh EVERY TIME!

[TheWorpler]

a classic line - the new KW bio is a good read....

[hotwok19]

@ShowYourWorking. Yeah! Another great line, but this particular Carry-On movie had loads of them. Charles Hawtrey playing the soothsayer & father of Caesar's wife's father Calpurnia [Joan Sims] tells him to "Beware the ides of march!". Caesar replies, "Oh! Shut up! You silly old faggot!", in a way that only Kenneth Williams could say it.

Genius! I still love the line from a a more recent one, Carry on Columbus,

"The sharks ate him sir!"

"ooo, did they eat him whole?"

"yes sir, and his arms and legs too!"

[SirKanti1]

makes me giggle every time

[gamewizard]

The infamy line was voted the most famous line in British film history.

[PeterBluth]

Run Kenny, Run!!!!

[Paracetamoljunkie]

Absolute classic line but i think the line just before is really good too, 'I may not be a very good live emperor, but id be a worse one dead!' :D

[Bluebottle83]

wonderful!

[TheWhitehall]

Stabbed in the vitals, from behind! Nasty.

[dragonetgirl]

The line was originally from Frank Muir and Dennis Norden's radio series. Very funny

[nbarrett100]

Fantastic

[hotwok19]

This is undoubtedly the funniest line from the funniest "Carry On" film, but there is another hilarious line almost as good. Mark Anthony [Sid James] informs Julius Caesar [Kenny Williams] that "Ptolemy is mustering his troops in Alexandria". "And what about Cleopatra, is she mustered [mustard]?",asks Caesar. Anthony leering replies "Oh! Well i have heard." Wonderful!. Sid & Kenny were the heart & soul of the Carry Ons & irreplaceable.

[harwetopa]

Another one of my favorites from this movie is what Caesar said to slave Gloria when asked if he was all right [while at sea]:

I'm sic[k]...transit, Gloria.

Brilliant!

[hotwok19]

Yes! It is a brilliant joke, albeit somewhat intellectual, & it seems a long way removed from your average "Carry On" lavatorial, low-brow humour.

[gamewizard]

@harwetopa

And she was captured at Bristol. ;)

[Hindenburg12886]

@gamewizard dirty boy! ;)

[Hindenburg12886]

@hotwok19 ...even though they hated each other. RIP T_T

[hotwok19]

@Hindenburg12886. Yes!. I beleive it was because Sid James perceived Kenneth Williams to be a raving pufter, although for most of his life he was celibate by his own admission. He may also have recognised that his comic talent & intelligence was, if anything, superior to his & Sid may have been a tinge envious.

[jamiekelly12]

I'm 15 and I love watching Carry On films with dad; absolute classics, good job they made a fair few!

[Nilguiri]

Bona to vada Ken's eek again!

Classic comedy!

[chipsotool100]

'ere, stop messin' about

[dasher1982]

"what are you doing with your thing!" hahahahah

[morizla]

please post all the carry on you have..i enjoyed them growing up in nigeria..early 80`s

[KapernicusI]

Hooray for the early Carry Ons.

[Ihavenotgotaname]

I agree! This line is genius - my all time favourite comedy line from a film.
