The Carry On film comedy series is much loved. With its broad British humour and regular cast members, the Carry Ons were very successful. The films had a low budget, and went through slightly different styles from 1958 to 1992. Some of the films are considered to be among the greatest British films ever made, especially in the comedy genre. This book of 1000 Carry Facts has trivia on every aspect of the Carry Ons – from the cast, production crew, locations, unmade Carry Ons, anecdotes, behind the scenes stories, the production of the films and much more. Hopefully you will learn something new about this wonderful film (and television!) series.
