The Big Job, written by Peter Rogers but he decided not to include it into the Carry On series.
The film is funny but doesn’t have the inuendo you’d expect of a Carry On film. It’s a fun film more in the style of The Lavender Hill Mob.

Gerald Thomas also directed "Watch Your Stern" and "Raising The Wind" which were also very similar to Carry Ons, but "The Big Job" is the best 🙂
Thanks. I’ll try to hunt those two down.
I remembered fondly this film in my youth but could never recall what it was called so it remained a distant memory for years. Then the internet happened and my curiosity was satisfied. A lovely film.
I loved this film. My grandad knew loved the Carry On films and one day when this was on TV he scrambled to get it taped for me because he knew I would appreciate it. Years later I bought it on DVD and he was delighted.
A lovely memory.
I've never heard of this film, even after doing some basic research while watching the Carry On films.
