Hello again Film Club members and welcome to another classic Carry On film where it is the 17th of December 2022 which also means it's the seventeenth day of advent and today's film was chosen by my sister Katie she chose Carry On Up The Khyber which is all about Sir Sidney Ruff-Diamond who looks after the British outpost near the Khyber Pass. Protected by the kilted Third Foot and Mouth regiment, you would think they were safe. But the Khazi of Kalabar has other ideas. He wants all the British dead! But his troops fear the "skirted-devils"; they are rumoured not to wear anything underneath. But then one is caught with his pants on... The actors that star in this film are Sid James, Kenneth Williams, Joan Sims and Charles Hawtrey. These are the same actors and actress that were in Carry On Cleo. This review has been given five stars which means I loved it because every year I try and watch all of the Carry On films my whole family loves them but my Dad loves them the most. They give a good laugh if you are feeling a little bit down just try and watch a Carry On film to cheer yourself up. My next film for tomorrow will be chosen by my Mum again so thank you for reading my review on the film which is called Carry On Up The Khyber.
