Carry On Camping reviewed for local cinema

The Washington Evening Journal notes Carry On Camping as the first of seven English comedies released by American International Pictures. The film follows a group of campers on a shared site with familiar star turns by Barbara Windsor and Sid James. Its light humor relies on innuendo and slapstick as hapless couples and staff navigate camp life. The piece emphasizes the harmless, cheeky tone and the R rating appears excessive.
