Carry On Follow That Camel (1967)
When Sergeant Bilko was demobbed, Phil Silvers came to England
to play Sergeant Nocker of the Foreign Legion in this
high-spirited satire of adventure epics.
Unjustly accused of being a cheat, Beau West joins the French
Foreign Legion where he immediately falls foul of the obnoxious
Sergeant Nocker and Sheikh Abdul Abulbul.
Not originally a Carry On film, that title was
added almost at the end of production, and didn’t even appear in
the finished product.
Nevertheless, with Kenneth Williams ("there’s many a
good fiddle played on an old dune") and company in
attendance, the film is a classic of the series.
