Yes no budget for much in the way of sets back then. Lots of location scenes though in the BBC gravel pit and some nuclear power stations.Quote:

Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, 1991.

Wayne and Hudson finally got along well after a shaky start.
Carry On at Your Convenience, 1971.

The film failed at box office mostly due to its shop steward/union jokes.
After Sid James's character was criticised for leering at some girls in Carry On Henry (1971), here his character was changed to the put-upon family man similar to the character he portrayed in the TV sitcom Bless This House. In the next film Carry On Matron (1972) his character was preoccupied with thieving, but made odd suggestive comments to nurses (including one played by Jacki Piper, who played his daughter in this film). Sid's girl-chasing persona was fully reinstated for subsequent films.
'At Your Convenience' is one of the few films in the Carry On series where several script lines take on a semi-serious tone and are not played entirely for laughs.
In a 'convenience', flushed right down the pan, is where they should put ALL the 'Carry On' films!!:ner:

Probably my favourite Carry On, and the only one I own on DVD!Quote:
