Of all the Carry On movies this one is my favourite The cast is excellent and the plot is silly but fun. Kenneth Williams is brilliant as the hypochondriac Sir Bernard Cutting. Hattie Jacques and Kenneth have a really good screen interaction happening in this movie. Although the main plot is about the intended theft of the pill by Sid James's character Sid Carter and his gang there are also sub plots like the romance between Sir Bernard and matron. Joan Sims plays a character called Mrs Tidy who eats the hospital out of house and home having false alarms galore while her long suffering husband camps in the hospital waiting room. Sid James's son who goes undercover as a female nurse falls for his room mate Barbara Windsor and ends up delivering a baby. It is also nice to see Wendy Richard (aka Miss Brahms from Are You Being Served) in a small role as wait for it......Miss Willing (an unwed mother).

I have to be completely honest in saying first that I fell asleep somewhere in the middle, so I cannot give a full opinion about the film until I see it in full. Basically, a group of thieves, including Sid Carter (Sid James) and Ernie Bragg (Bernard Bresslaw), plan to make a fortune stealing a shipment of contraceptive pills from Finisham maternity hospital. This is where title character Matron (Hattie Jacques) works, along with staff members Sir Bernard Cutting (Kenneth Williams), Dr. Francis Goode (Charles Hawtrey), Dr. Prodd (Terry Scott) and Nurse Susan Ball (Barbara Windsor). Patients and their visitors are around too, including pregnant Mrs. Tidey (Joan Sims) and her nervous dad-to-be husband Mr. Tidey (Kenneth Connor). Also starring Bill Maynard as Freddy and EastEnders' Wendy Richard as Miss Willing. This plan by the way is not working out by the way, because all the staff are getting in the way. That's pretty much all can say about the film until I see it again in full. Okay!

This is excellent. The only word to describe this film is excellent.Its a real treat from beginning to end.For those who have not seen this film you haven't lived!!!. Everyone is enjoying themselves in the Finisham maternity hospital. The film has the lot Innudendo gags saucy jokes and all good clean fun!! Sid Bernie Hattie Charlie Kenny Williams and Kenny Connor, Babs as Nurse Susan Ball. Terry Scott Dr Prodd. Joan Sims plays the ever expectant mother. Jacki Piper and Patsy Rowlands are joining in the fun. The film is great along with Doctor the best medical carry on film!!.Patsy has short screen time which is a shame. This was the highlight of the carry on series. A good film for Terry Scott to leave the series from as with Jacki Piper.10/10

Carry on Matron is one of the funniest carry on movies i have ever seen in my life. This movie was made in 1972, starring Sid James, Hattie Jacques, Terry Scott, Kenneth Williams, Barbara Windsor. Those actors/actresses are fantastic ones. Thye are very funny and i think they have chosen the perfect roles for the carry on movies they have starred in. Sadly though, now these days, there is only Barbara Windsor still alive that i have mentioned earlier. Sid James, Terry Scott, Hattie Jacques and Kenneth Willams sadly died years ago. Carry on Doctor, Carry on Again Doctor, and Carry on Nurse are another example that is simalar ot Carry on Matron. I give this movie 10 out of 10.
