Plot summary

An experimental mixed sex anti-aircraft battery in wartime is enjoying making love not war. However, the arrival of the new Captain S. Melly brings an end to their cosy life and causes terror in the ranks.

Production

This film featured few established members of the Carry On team. Carry On regular Kenneth Connor played a leading role, however the only other longterm regulars present, Joan Sims and Peter Butterworth, had only small roles in the film.

Windsor Davies who had joined the series with a main role in the preceding film Carry On Behind again plays a major role. Other main roles are played by established and recognisable actors Judy Geeson and Patrick Mower, both newcomers to the Carry On films.

This film was a major commercial failure and was withdrawn from some cinemas after just three days.
