I can't argue with a man who quotes Robert McKee Geek

I thought that when I was writing it, but then - what the heck? It's a Monday in November, so I'm a little crazy.

The backing Britain on the Union Jack may be the saddest sight in any comnedy film.

At the very end when they fly the Union Jack, it has

"Backing Britain, " Written on it.

A very and pointless cmapaign to try and pull UK out of a financial rut, by buying British and working for free.

A yucky mix of pseduo socialism, protectionism and a hint of racism.

Failed utterly.

Ah, you mean in reference to Carry On Up The Khyber. Ok. :)

I did for my sins, oh the horror, the horror.

Carry on Camping is gold though isn't it?

Why can't we love good comedy. ROund the Horn, Hancock, Porridge, Fawlty Towers, Oh Lucky Man etc.

A vast, vast list.

And not dislike the lesser efforts.

Hell Carry on Camping was good fun, so was Carry on Sergeant.

Carry on Up the Khyber is just a rather poor film.

Now that's a really lovely film.

Tents up first bunks up later.

Well it's like Sean of the Dead having vote BNP flash up at the end.

Camping better than Khyber? Bah! To my mind Khyber and Cleo are so far ahead of the rest of the crop it's unreal.
