Gerald Thomas

"I don't think I can do it." And then he, my Uncle Gerald Thomas directed him in his first film, Time Lock.

Uh-huh.

So I had a nice conversation.

And it was the carry on influence as well.

It was having Peter Rogers, Gerald Thomas, you know, Alan Hume, etc.

Everybody that the gang was all there, if you know what I mean.

And it had and it was also the supporting cast.

It took me years.

It took me years to find out what he'd said.

And that was one of the things about the carry-ons that used to piss me off later on because Gerald Thomas would have known that that was inaudible.

And so, you know, just do it again.

It's time to splice the main brace, prepare for trouble on the high seas.

Carry On Jack, released in the UK in 1964, directed by Gerald Thomas and featuring a bouncy score by Eric Rogers.

This nautical misadventure was penned by Talbot Rothwell, his second script for the franchise.

We find ourselves aboard the HMS Venus, a ship supposedly tasked with battling the Spanish Armada, but manned by a crew of staggering incompetence.

He's the hook, isn't he?

Yeah.

Martin Lider has eight appearances, and then on nine appearances, we've got Chris Adcock and Gerald Thomas.

So one more carry-on or other... speech that he did and Gerald Thomas will be breaking back into the Hall of Fame after having had to go out the back door.
