Carry On Abroad Carry On Abroad Carry On Abroad is the twenty-fourth in the series of "Carry On" films to be made, released in December 1972. The film features series regulars Sid James, Kenneth Williams, Joan Sims, Bernard Bresslaw, Barbara Windsor, Kenneth Connor, Peter Butterworth and Hattie Jacques. It was the 23rd and final appearance for Charles Hawtrey. June Whitfield returned after appearing in "Carry On Nurse" 13 years earlier. Jimmy Logan made the first of two appearances in the series. Along with the previous film in the series ("Carry On Matron"), it features the highest number of the regular "Carry On" team.
Carry On Behind already made their final "Carry On" film appearances. Chilly spring filming meant the bare trees, muddy fields and icy breath are all quite visible, although the setting is a summer caravanning holiday. A similar dilemma met the cast and crew in "Carry On Camping". The signage in Fred Ramsden's butcher's shop clearly shows that the shop is closing for the Easter holidays, which can occur as early as March. Whilst this film was in production, Bernard Bresslaw and Joan Sims also appeared in "One of Our Dinosaurs Is Missing", another film being made at Pinewood Studios alongside "Carry On Behind".
