The Carry on Films dabbled more on adventure and innuendo. As the sixties progressed there was a tad more smut here and there. Like the famous scene in Carry on Camping as Barbara Windsor's brazier pops off.
The 1970s movies went more smuttier, the later ones got less funnier as the regulars also started to drop out of the movies.
This is reflected in this Thames Television special. No Sidney James and Charles Hawtrey. So bigger roles for Kenneth Connor and Peter Butterworth.
It is a sketch show format as the Carry On regulars recall stories at a banquet.
The first one is a rehash from Carry On Up the Khyber. The second one is all at sea while the last one is a Pantomime.
I believe this was broadcast on ITV a few days before Christmas. I doubt this would had been suitable family viewing on Christmas Day.
These television specials were a mixed bag. This was ok, some of the sketches went on too long. I think the smuttiness made it more suitable for an older audience.
