Comedy | UK | English | Colour | 85min w/ Kenneth Connor, Joan Sims, Windsor Davies, Judy Geeson, Peter Butterworth, Patrick Mower Captain S. Melly (Kenneth Connor) 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.. Carry On England was originally intended as a television episode for the 1975 Carry On Laughing series the previous year, but the writers David Pursell and Jack Seddon, were asked to adapt their script – "The Busting of Balsy" – into a film instead. England was the only film of the series to be partially funded by both Peter Rogers and Gerald Thomas: Rank refused to pay the full amount. Carry On England features Patrick Mower in place of Sid James, who had died a month before filming began in May 1976. The film took a month to make and was released in October 1976. Due to the topless nudity and one use of the word "Fokker" it was released with a 'AA' certificate which excluded anyone under the age of 14, before the scenes were cut and the film passed with an 'A' certificate, which had been common throughout the series.
