Watch Your Stern (1960)
Director: Gerald Thomas
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
The 'Carry On' crew edge out of port under a flag of convenience as able seaman Connor dons a variety of disguises to stop the Admiralty top brass discovering he's accidentally destroyed a set of hush-hush torpedo plans. Milligan and Sykes steal the picture as a couple of chatty electricians, otherwise the awful puns and dodgy double entendres are all shipshape and Bristol-fashion.Author: TJ
