Rating: - Infamy, Infamy...
One of the best of the series, being lucky enough to have a reasonable plot combining various influences from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar to the Elizabeth Taylor film Cleopatra.

Rating:  - I Have A Poisonous Asp!
If the above title has you chuckling, this is the movie for you! A spoof of Anthony & Cleopatra done in the inimitable Carry On style.

My personal favourite Carry On. They don't make 'em like this any more!
