Carry on Cowboy (1965)

Goofs

Carry on Cowboy

Edit

Continuity

Jim Dale demolishes the desk in the Inquiries office, which ends with him putting the top back on and the Inquiries sign on it. The man behind the desk then leans on it, demolishing it again, but as Jim Dale leaves the office, the view from outside shows the desk top back in place, complete with the Inquiries sign.
At the start of the film, the Rumpo Kid has a gunfight with three men. When the Rumpo Kid starts to draw, he shoots his left gun into the ground and then shoots his right gun at the three men in front of him. After that, he waves both guns around, but never fires another shot. Three men fall down, apparently killed by the one shot from the Rumpo Kid's right gun.
When Big Heap accidentally blows himself up whilst lighting a fire some twigs are poking out of the top of his sleeve just under his left shoulder but the very next shot a close up and the twigs have gone.
At a strategic moment in the saloon dancers' can-can, Judge Burke is asked to describe their underwear. His description bears no resemblance to what is on display.

Incorrectly regarded as goofs

The government official tells 'Marshall Knutt' to go down the corridor to the Dept. Of Public Works. However, Knutt walks into an office very clearly marked Dept. Of Internal Affairs. BUT if 'Marshall P. Knutt' had entered the 'Public Works' office rather than 'Internal Affairs', he would not have been offered the post of lawman. It is part of the plot device to enable the mix-up caused by his name.

Anachronisms

Towns in the "old west" didn't have sewer systems and certainly no manhole covers. (Like many things in the series, this was depicted for comedic purposes).
A snatch of 'America the Beautiful' is heard, but this song was first published many years after the setting of the film.

Character error

Big Heap says "They've got three of my braves." However, four Indians have been seen to be shot and fall off their horses.
