Carry On Up The Khyber Review

Overall Rating

Carry On Up The Khyberis a classic carry on film. Sir Sidney Ruff-diamond is the governor of the North West frontier province of India which is protected by the third foot and mouth regiment, the invincible ' devils in skirts ' who are said to not wear anything under their kilts. However things go wrong when one devil in skirt (Private Widdle) is caught wearing underpants by a native named Bungdit Din (leader of the Burpers) who takes them to the Khazi of Khalabar. The Khazi intends to use them, along with a photograph showing the regiment wearing underpants to show the Burpers that the devils in skirts are not invincible and rouse them into rebelling against the British. A highly recommendable film and suitable for all the family. Full of double entendres and memorable lines
