"Even Adam and Eve had a fig leaf!" and aren't we glad they lent it to Gerald Thomas and Lance Peters to write the storyboard for this tacky attempt at comedy. The thing for me about the "Carry On" films was the they were all a bit smutty and grubby, but there were characters and sometimes even stories featured as they marauded around Europe or through history. This, though, is completely devoid of either charm or substance as "Mme. Prevert" - yes, that's about as sophisticated as it gets, gets fed up being neglected by her husband (Kenneth Williams) and so with the help of his driver (Kenneth Connor) she (Suzanne Danielle) embarks on a series of teases around London. Imagine his shock when he finds out his wife is a bit of a slapper? The damage to his reputation? Sad thing is, this woman really only wants to have a "full" relationship with her husband. If only he'd put out! Ten years ago these were starting to run out of steam, but by 1978 the whole format looked puerile and naff. Joan Sims, Peter Butterworth and Beryl Reid all try to raise it above the gutter, but sadly that's where it steadfastly remains for ninety minutes - and it's probably where it belongs too.
