Storyline

Captain S. Melly takes over as the new Commanding Officer at an experimental mixed sex air defence base. It's 1940 and England is under heavy bombardment, but the crew seem more interested in each other than the enemy planes above. Captain Melly plans to put a stop to all this, and becomes the target of a campaign to abandon his separatist ideals... Written by Simon N. McIntosh-Smith <Simon.N.Smith@cs.cf.ac.uk>

Trivia

Because of two shots of nudity this was first released in England as a "AA" certificate (Suitable for those aged 14 and older) uncut on 29th June, 1976, to keep up with the then "Confessions..." films. The "AA" certificate proved "difficult to accommodate at the Box Office" as this "AA" award, and its nudity, was out of character with previous Carry On films and thus resubmitted to the BBFC (British Board of Film Classification) in December 1976 with cuts. On 11th January, 1977 it was re-classified, and re-released, as an "A" certificate (Those aged 5 and older admitted, but parents advised that they may not wish children under 14 to watch the film).

Goofs

Revealing mistakes: When the toggle on the gun is pulled back that supposedly injures Captain S. Melly's fingers, it doesn't actually make contact with them. See more »

Quotes

Capt. S. Melly: Surely you don't mean a bit of the other?
Sgt. Maj. Tiger Bloomer: There's that or the other, Sir. No matter what you call it, they has had it all, all the time. Been in and out of each others quarters like fiddler's elbows.
