    This second film in the Carry On series overdoses on bedpan, large needle and inedible food gags, but, as most of them are funny, no one will mind in the slightest. Hattie Jacques is superb as the bullying matron whose clipped supervision of nurses Shirley Eaton and Joan Sims prompts Kenneth Connor, Leslie Phillips and Kenneth Williams to give her a taste of her own medicine, while Wilfrid Hyde White has fun as a lecherous colonel in a private ward. It's loosely based on a forgotten play called Ring for Catty.

Despite being 73 O'Toole always seems to be working, recently starring opposite Brad Pitt in Troy, as Casanova in the TV series and in the new film version of Lassie. Phillips, who made his name as a lovable cad in films such as Carry On Nurse,... Read more
