Proper film #18 in the iconic Brit-com series is a course-correcting solid 'Carry On'
In 1970 Brit-com "Carry On Up The Jungle" (aka 'Carry on Tarzan' but for copyright), Sid James & Bernard Bresslaw lead Joan Sims, Jacki Piper, Frankie Howerd (replacing Kenneth Williams in sadly the last of his two 'Carry Ons') & Kenneth Connor (back after missing the last eight) on an African expedition with cannibals, wild elephants, a randy gorilla, Terry Scott's amusing Tarzan equivalent, and Charles Hawtrey's women only tribe (inc Valerie Leon) that needs new men to mate with. With proper film #18 in the iconic series, director Gerald Thomas & writer Talbot Rothwell offer a course-correcting solid entry, after the disappointment of "Carry On Again Doctor".
