3	->'''Mr. Boosey''': Well Upsidasi, what do those drums say?\
4	'''Upsidasi''': Dey say... "Boom diddy, boom diddy, boom boom boom".
5	-->-- '''Bill Boosey''' and '''Upsidasi''', trying to translate the JungleDrums.

7	''Carry On Up the Jungle'' is a ''Film/CarryOn'' movie from 1970, and the nineteenth overall. It starred [[SpecialGuest famous British comedian]] Creator/FrankieHowerd, Creator/SidJames, Creator/CharlesHawtrey, Creator/JoanSims, Creator/TerryScott, Creator/KennethConnor (in his first ''Film/CarryOn'' since ''Film/CarryOnCleo''), and Creator/BernardBresslaw. It is claimed to be an AffectionateParody of ''Literature/{{Tarzan}}'', implied when the original movie titles were ''Carry On Tarzan'' and ''Carry On Jungle Boy''.
8
9	''Up the Jungle'' revolves around a RagtagBunchOfMisfits on an expedition in DarkestAfrica with plans to camp out for as long as possible until they've each found what they've wanted.
10
11	The foppish Professor Inigo Tingle (Howerd) hopes to find the Oozlum bird in order to study its way of life, taking his horny partner Claude Chumley (Connor) along with him for extra help, until he becomes interested with the posh Lady Evelyn Bagley (Sims), who hopes to find her missing husband Walter (Hawtrey) and son Cecil years after their mysterious disappearances, but has to compete with the powerful hunter Bill Boosey (James), who is just as interested in the woman as Mr. Chumley. The final member of the group is Lady Bagley's maidservant June (Creator/JackiPiper), who falls in love with Ug the jungle boy (Scott), and tries to teach him English.
12
13	The group is led around by Mr. Boosey's native African friend Upsidasi (Bresslaw) and set up camp, where they are terrorized by [[KillerGorilla a gorilla]] (Reuben Martin), [[CannibalTribe the Noshas]] and finally [[AmazonBrigade the Lubi-Dubis]], who are led by the dashing Leda (Creator/ValerieLeon), who may just hold the answers to what the explorers are looking for...
14
15	HilarityEnsues.
16	----
17	!!Tropes Included:
18	* AbhorrentAdmirer:
19	** The gorilla, who finds both Lady Bagley and June attractive.
20	** Professor Tinkle, Mr. Boosey and Mr. Chumley have to deal with the fat and unattractive Lubi-Dubis during their mating ceremonies.
21	* AdventurerOutfit: All the cast have the safari type, apart from Lady Bagley and Upsidasi.
22	* AffectionateParody: Of ''Literature/{{Tarzan}}'', specifically June and Ug's subplot.
23	* TheAlcoholic: Bill [[MeaningfulName Boosey]], who takes swigs from bottles of wine when he hopes the others aren't looking.
24	* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: The upper-class Lady Bagley seems rather interested in the gritty and crass Mr. Boosey, finding his lowbrow nature a pleasant change from the snooty types she normally is around such as Professor Tinkle or Mr. Chumley.
25	* AlliterativeName:
26	** '''B'''ill '''B'''oosey.
27	** '''C'''laude '''C'''humley.
28	** The '''vi'''ndscreen '''vi'''per, a snake Professor Tinkle describes to Lady Bagley.
29	* AllMenArePerverts:
30	** Presumably because there aren't any women around to flirt or have their way with Mr. Chumley and Mr. Boosey become sexually frustrated and flirt with Lady Bagley. They are also overly thrilled when the attractive female tribe that kidnaps them makes them sacrifices.
31	** Professor Tinkle is a mild one. He only has one moment when he becomes aroused over watching Lady Bagley having her shower in the trees, and immediately takes a drug to stop his urges.
32	* AllThereInTheScript:
33	** The name of the leader of the Lubi-Dubis, Leda, is never mentioned in the film, but confirmed by the script and her actress Creator/ValerieLeon in the DVDCommentary.
34	** Likewise, we never hear the name of Edwina Carroll's character, but the script and a DeletedScene gives her the name Nerda.
35	* AmazonBrigade: The Lubi-Dubis, an all-female tribe who need men to mate with them.
36	* AsLongAsItSoundsForeign: Averted with Upsidasi; Creator/BernardBresslaw made a point of translating his lines into a real indigenous South African dialect, Fanagalo (known as Chilapalapa or Chikabanga further north)... which was lost on the West Indian actors portraying the natives.[[note]] But not on the South Africa-born Creator/SidJames, who applauded Bresslaw's dedication.[[/note]]
37	* AsideComment: When June teaches Ug to count, he gets to [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything six]] and drags her into his hut. As she's being dragged away, she looks at the audience and mumbles to herself.
38	-->'''June''': I wonder if we'll ever get to seven!
39	* BabiesEverAfter: [[spoiler:The closing shot reveals Ug and June in their treehouse, and June has a baby-sized bundle in her arms.]]
40	* BabyTalk: In Walter's flashback, he talks to his son in entire sentences like this.
41	-->'''Walter''': Poor Mumsy-wumsy must have forgot to put Babesy-wabesy on the potsy-wotsy this morning, didn't she den? Yes, she did den, the lazy cow... sy-wowsy. Dere, den. Daddy-wadsy will have to give Mumsy-wumsy a smacksie-wacksie, won't he den? Yes, he will den. Round the chopsy-wopsies.
42	* BaitAndSwitch: [[spoiler:The final scene shows Ug arriving at a house and walking up the front path, only for him to turn around halfway up and start ascending the ladder to a new treehouse, where he now lives with June.]]
43	* BedmateReveal: Four in the same night.
44	** June thinks Ug has joined her in bed but turns on the light to see the gorilla.
45	** Lady Bagley thinks Professor Tinkle has joined her, but instead meets Ug.
46	** Mr. Chumley then comes face to face with Ug soon after her.
47	** Professor Tinkle goes to meet Lady Bagley but is horrified to find the gorilla in her bed.
48	* BigDamnHeroes:
49	** The Lubi-Dubis rescuing the group from the Noshas.
50	** Later Upsidasi and the British soldiers rescue the group from the Lubi-Dubis.
51	* BigGuyLittleGuy:
52	** Upsidasi towers over his boss, Bill Boosey.
53	** Professor Tinkle is also taller than Mr. Chumley, his little assistant.
54	* BigThinShortTrio: When the three British men of the group are set up to mate with the Lubi-Dubi women, Professor Tinkle is the big guy, Mr. Boosey is the thin guy, and Mr. Chumley is the short guy.
55	* BlackComedyRape: During dinner, nobody realises a snake has gone up Lady Bagley's dress.
56	-->'''Mr. Boosey''': Wonder what's up with her?
57	-->'''Professor Tinkle''': Well, I don't know, but whatever it is, it's certainly rubbing her up the wrong way.
58	* {{Blackface}}:
59	** Upsidasi, played by the white Creator/BernardBresslaw.
60	** And InUniverse, Upsidasi does whiteface to disguise himself as a Lubi-Dubi.
61	* BloodlessCarnage:
62	** Mr. Boosey accidentally shoots a few bearers, who don't seem to bleed.
63	** A bearer gets two Nosha spears in the back, with not so much as a drop of blood.
64	* BlowingARaspberry: Mr. Boosey blows one in response to Ug's calls sounding out through the night.
65	* BookEnds: The film starts in a lecture hall as Professor Tinkle starts telling his audience (and us) the story of his last expedition, and the film's penultimate scene also takes place there as he finishes his story.
66	* BriefAccentImitation: Mr. Boosey copies June's voice so he can watch her shower without getting caught.
67	* BumblingSidekick: Professor Tinkle's assistant Mr. Chumley, who spends most of his time lusting over Lady Bagley or getting into misfortunes.
68	* CameraAbuse: When the group frantically dig a PitTrap, the camera is showered with the dirt they fling.
69	* CannibalTribe: The Noshas that kidnap the party are believed to be this, which is why the native help that Upsidasi has organised leaves the party stranded.
70	* CaptainErsatz: June and Ug take clear inspiration from [[Literature/{{Tarzan}} Jane and Tarzan]].
71	* CapturedByCannibals: At one point, the explorers are captured by the cannibalistic Noshas. Professor Tinkle tries to buy them off with his pocket watch, but when Ug's rescue attempt accidentally sets off a series of explosions, the Noshas re-apprehend the party and prepare to make them that evening's main course.
72	* CarpetOfVirility: Ug has light chest hair the he is seen brushing when he's getting ready to meet June. When the gorilla sneaks into June's tent, she is convinced that he is him in the darkness because of his hairiness.
73	* CampStraight: Professor Tinkle lusts over Lady Bagley but is played by the gay Creator/FrankieHowerd.
74	* ChasedByAngryNatives: The group are chased by the Noshas, who eventually catch them in a hole they dug to try and trap them.
75	* ChekhovsGun: Lady Bagley mentions that she never found her infant son Cecil's nappy pin after he went missing. [[spoiler:After accidentally tearing off Ug's loincloth, she sees the nappy pin in it and realises he is her long-lost son.]]
76	* ComicallyMissingThePoint: When Upsidasi warns of the Noshas, saying how they eat people and are very backward, Professor Tinkle complains he doesn't want to be eaten backwards.
77	* ComedicUnderwearExposure: Ug has to run around wearing bloomers after briefly losing his LoinCloth.
78	* CrashIntoHello: When the camp set up again in fear of the Noshas on the warpath, Mr. Chumley goes to urinate in the jungle before everyone goes to bed and crashes in Lady Bagley in the dark when he's trying to get back to camp. He tries to use this as an advantage to try and have his way with her but is caught by Professor Tinkle.
79	* CruelElephant: After the group escape the Lubi-Dubis, they are nearly stampeded by a herd of elephants.
80	* CryingWolf: At the Lubi-Dubi camp, the men go on strike after being given undesirable women to ravish over and over again. [[spoiler:When they eventually get help from Upsidasi and the British Army, they are given attractive women at the next mating ceremony, just as the men have positioned themselves around the camp with their weapons.]]
81	* DarkestAfrica: The film is set in the middle of the jungle, where wild animals and lost tribes are a constant danger.
82	* DeadpanSnarker:
83	** Professor Tinkle has something snarky to say anytime someone (usually Mr. Boosey) gets on his nerves.
84	** Mr. Boosey is quite snarky too though.
85	--->'''June''': The drums have stopped.
86	--->'''Mr. Boosey''': Get away.
87	** Although mostly a sweet girl, June has one hilarious moment of snark.
88	--->'''Lady Bagley''': Ah, thank you, June. I shall not require you anymore. You may take the evening off.
89	--->'''June''': In the middle of the jungle? Big deal!
90	* DidntThinkThisThrough: Mr. Boosey's plan to dig a pit to trap the Noshas. Everyone ends up digging a pit so deep that they themselves get trapped in it. Tinkle asks how they are supposed to get out, and Mr. Boosey simply says, "Yes, well, like I said, it never fails" Immediately after that, they get captured.
91	* DirtyOldMan:
92	** Bill Boosey. He fights for Lady Bagley's affections (even after finding out her travelling intentions) and becomes very protective over the young single June.
93	** Walter, on the count that when he first met the all-female tribe, he nicknamed them the Lubi-Dubis, which is often slang that old men use in a sexual way to describe younger, attractive women.
94	* DisguisedInDrag: Upsidasi dresses up as a Lubi-Dubi to infiltrate Afrodisia and tell the group how he plans to free himself.
95	* DistractedByTheSexy:
96	** Ug sort of is, but not in a sexual way. When he notices the protruding chests of Lady Bagley and June, he becomes curious, and concerned that they're different to his chest.
97	** Mr. Boosey and Mr. Chumley when around the Lubi-Dubi tribe.
98	* EarlyBirdCameo: A keen eye can spot [[spoiler:Walter at Professor Tinkle's lecture prior to his reveal as Tonka the Great.]]
99	* EitherOrTitle: ''Carry On Up the Jungle'' or ''The African Queens'' or ''Stop beating about the bush'' or ''Show me your waterhole and I'll show you mine''.
100	* ExactWords: Mr. Boosey asks Upsidasi what the JungleDrums say, so Upsidasi tells him "Boom diddy, boom diddy, boom boom boom".
101	* FailedASpotCheck: The group dig a large pit to trap the Noshas in, although once they are finished, they realise that they have dug straight down without thinking of how they were going to get out themselves.
102	* FaintInShock:
103	** Mr. Chumley does so when he sees the gorilla in the tree next to him, causing him to fall out of the tree.
104	** June and Lady Bagley both do this on the same night in Mr. Boosey's tent. June faints in Mr. Boosey's arms after discovering the gorilla in her tent. Then, after realising Ug is her long-lost son, she bursts into Mr. Boosey's tent, and has just enough time to say his name before she also passes out. He gloomily lampshades it.
105	--->'''Mr. Boosey''': Why do I always have that effect on 'em?
106	** Lady Bagley again when she discovers Tonka the Great is in fact her long-lost husband Walter and has been with the Lubi-Dubis all these years.
107	* FictionalDocument: ''La Belle Parisienne'', the dirty magazine that Professor Tinkle reads to curb his sexual urges.
108	* FlashbackWithinAFlashback: Lady Bagley and Walter's conversation features a flashback to the day of Walter's disappearance in a film that is an entire flashback.
109	* {{Foreshadowing}}:
110	** When talking about not hearing any JungleDrums, Upsidasi tells Mr. Boosey that women in a tribe like to stuff bones in their nostrils. When meeting the Lubi-Dubis, one of their chants are, "Tonka, Tonka - stick it up your honker".
111	** After being captured by the Noshas, Mr. Chumley notes that Upsidasi was able to escape and hopes that he went for help. [[spoiler:Later on, we find that he did.]]
112	* FourLinesAllWaiting:
113	** Lady Bagley looking for her missing husband and son.
114	** Professor Tinkle and Claude Chumley trying to find a rare bird, while both trying to get with Lady Bagley.
115	** June falling for Ug the jungle boy and trying to teach him English.
116	* FreezeFrameBonus: [[spoiler:In the opening scene, Lady Bagley is seen sitting on the left side of the screen with Walter asleep next to her.]]
117	* FurBikini: June dons one after she goes off with Ug.
118	* {{Gasshole}}: Mr. Boosey burps at dinner to the disgust of Mr. Chumley.
119	-->'''Mr. Boosey''': Better than sneaking it out in other ways, innit?
120	* TheGlassesGottaGo: Happens to June, as she has glasses up until the pool scene. They're then gone for the rest of the film.
121	* GoneSwimmingClothesStolen: June has her clothes stolen by the gorilla when she has a swim.
122	* GotMeDoingIt: Happens to June as she teaches Ug English.
123	-->'''Ug''': There. Was batter?
124	-->'''June''': Mech butter. ({{Beat}}) Oh dear. Now you've got me doing it.
125	* GrandeDame: Lady Bagley, who remains elegant and upper-class even in DarkestAfrica.
126	* GreatWhiteHunter: Bill Boosey is an alcoholic parody; being so drunk he can't shoot a single thing.
127	-->'''Mr. Boosey''': Did I get him?
128	-->'''Upsidasi''': No, Boss, you aim good - but him in de wrong place.
129	* HangoverSensitivity: Mr. Boosey briefly mistakes the Nosha's JungleDrums for a splitting headache brought on by another night of drinking.
130	* HellYesMoment: In the final mating ceremony, Professor Tinkle, Mr. Boosey and Mr. Chumley get this when, instead of the unattractive women they have been getting every ceremony thus far, they find the mates they have been given this time are slim and attractive.
131	* HopelessSuitor: Professor Tinkle, Mr. Boosey and Mr. Chumley to Lady Bagley - the latter two being much more forceful than the first. Lady Bagley has no interest in any of them, in case her husband Walter turns out alive, but she hints that if she were to end up with any of them, she'd go for Professor Tinkle (she kisses his cheek when he escorts her back to her tent in the dark).
132	* HowDidThatGetInThere: This gag occurred in [[DeletedScene the original extended version]] of Professor Tinkle's opening lecture as a slideshow is shown to his audience:
133	-->'''Professor Tinkle''': Here is the starting point of our expedition - and here is our ultimate goal - the Interior! ({{Beat}}) Oh, and that is an interior decorator. Yes, that slide shouldn't have been there. The next one please!
134	* HowWeGotHere: The movie's events happened ages ago and is being told to a birdwatching audience by Professor Tinkle.
135	* ImAHumanitarian: The Noshas are explicitly stated to be cannibals, and come very close to serving up the main characters.
136	* ImmediateSelfContradiction: Mr. Boosey tells the group he refuses to stay in the clearing they've arrived at. Then he hears the Noshas' JungleDrums and barks out orders to set the tents up.
137	* ImpactSilhouette: Ug crashes into a tree and the shape of his body is left in the bark as he falls off.
138	* IncrediblyConspicuousDrag: Upsidasi does not make a very convincing Lubi-Dubi, yet somehow manages to infiltrate Afrodisia with his disguise.
139	* InSeriesNickname: Mr. Boosey claims that he doesn't believe in superstitions, which is why he is nicknamed "Rattlesnake Bill". No one calls him this at any other point in the movie, but is called that in a few DeletedScenes found in the book ''The Lost Carry Ons''.
140	* JungleDrums: When the bearers hear the Noshas' drums, they refuse to go any further lest they be eaten by cannibals. Mr. Boosey isn't convinced that cannibals even exist, but Upsidasi explains it to him.
141	-->'''Upsidasi''': Well, dey say dat de first drum says "Lay de table. Dinner on de way". And de second drum says "Yummy yummy".
142	* JungleOpera: The film is a parody of this, with the exploring party having different reasons of being on the trip, such as Lady Bagley searching for her missing son Cecil, and Professor Tinkle and Mr. Chumley looking for exotic birds.
143	* JunglesSoundLikeKookaburras: The movie surprisingly subverts this, however, the kookaburra laugh can be heard when Ug tries to make a dramatic entrance in front of June and falls upside down in the lake nearby. Although, you could interpret it as an AnimalReactionShot from an African bird that was watching nearby.
144	* KillerGorilla: A gorilla bothers the group at several times, peeking at Lady Bagley in the shower, stealing June's clothes and rifling through their tents.
145	* LadyLand: The all-female Lubi-Dubi tribe from the LostWorld of Afrodisia; no male children have been born into the tribe for many years, so they are in danger of dying out unless they can find some men to father future generations.
146	* LettingHerHairDown: June normally has her hair done up, but lets it down when swimming in the waterhole.
147	* LoinCloth: Ug, having never lived in a society that expects people to be fully clothed, spends most of the movie wearing nothing but a loin cloth. At one point, he is [[ComedicUnderwearExposure caught in bloomers]].
148	* LostWorld: The lost world of Afrodisia, in the heart of DarkestAfrica and populated by the entirely female Lubi-Dubi tribe (and one lost Englishman).
149	* MagicalNegro: Upsidasi who guides Mr. Boosey and the others up the jungle.
150	* ManlyMenCanHunt: Bill Boosey tries to do so, but unfortunately he couldn't shoot straight to save his life thanks to his alcoholism.
151	* MarshmallowHell: After Lady Bagley is reunited with Ug, she hugs him by pressing the side of his head against her chest.
152	* MathematiciansAnswer: Professor Tinkle gives Lady Bagley one when trying to answer her question about giraffes.
153	-->'''Lady Bagley''': I wonder why it is they have such long necks.
154	-->'''Professor Tinkle''': Oh, well it's quite simple. It's because their heads are so far away from their bodies.
155	* MeaningfulName: Bill '''Boosey''' is TheAlcoholic.
156	* MightyWhitey: King Tonka AKA Walter Bagley is probably one of the least mighty examples of this trope in all fiction; after the Lubi-Dubis saved him from being eaten by the Noshas years earlier, they declared him their king in the hope that he could sire some male Lubi-Dubis to sustain the tribe.
157	* MischiefMakingMonkey: The gorilla that constantly shows up to the party's campsite. He even steals June's clothes and wears them.
158	* MondegreenGag: When Lady Bagley asks him to be circumspect, Professor Tinkle thinks she's said "circumcised" and responds that he was when he was a baby.
159	* NakedPeopleAreFunny: Ug briefly loses his LoinCloth and has to run around naked before finding some bloomers he can wear.
160	* NativeGuide: Upsidasi to Mr. Boosey and the rest of the party.
161	* NatureHero: Ug has spent almost his entire life in the jungle, and has a strong rapport with the local wildlife. In the film's climax, he calls forth a stampede of animals to give the explorers a chance to escape the Lubi-Dubis. [[spoiler:Even when he returns to England with his parents at the end of the film, he and June live in a treehouse in a London suburb.]]
162	* NaughtyBirdWatching: Mr. Chumley at a showering Lady Bagley; he falls out of the tree he's spying in after realizing a giant gorilla is watching him watch her.
163	* NiceJobBreakingItHero: After the Noshas decide to let the group go, Professor Tinkle's big mouth and Ug's failed rescue attempt has them all to be put to death.
164	* NeverMyFault: Mr. Boosey convinces the Noshas that Professor Tinkle is a wizard, but when the reluctant Professor's improvisation goes wrong, Mr. Boosey blames him for ruining their escape chances.
165	* NobodyPoops: Averted.
166	** Mr. Boosey warns Mr. Chumley the first law of the jungle is no widdling in the camp area, ordering him to go into the jungle to relieve himself.
167	** In Walter's flashback, Walter realises to his disgust that Cecil has soiled himself.
168	* NoFullNameGiven: We don't find out June's surname, [[spoiler:although judging by the ending it's likely she became June Bagley after marrying Ug.]]
169	* OhCrap:
170	** June has one when she discovers the gorilla in her tent, thinking it was Ug.
171	** After escaping from the Lubi-Dubis, Mr. Boosey and the others realise there are elephants coming their way from Ug's elephant call. Upsidasi has one too when the elephants appear.
172	--->'''Mr. Boosey''': Blimey, what's that? ({{Beat}}) ELEPHANTS!
173	--->'''Upsidasi''': Umballa! Umballa!
174	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Mr. Boosey's first name is William, although he only gets called this before the first mating ceremony.
175	* OnlyOneName: The NativeGuide, Upsidasi.
176	* OnlyYouCanRepopulateMyRace: The Lubi-Dubis hope to get this from the men, as they have had no male births for many years. Mr. Boosey and Mr. Chumley want the sex, but probably don't want to be fathers yet.
177	* OutWithABang: When Leda explains that the last man in Afrodisia died years ago, Mr. Chumley remarks it isn't hard to guess what from.
178	* ThePeepingTom: Mr. Chumley watches Lady Bagley have a shower, then when Professor Tinkle catches him, he sends him away so he can watch her himself.
179	* PermaShave:
180	** For being the age to grow facial hair, Walter and Ug are clean-shaven throughout their appearances. Perhaps the Lubi-Dubis have types of rocks in their village that Walter can use as razors, but Ug has grown up with no humans so it's unlikely that he was taught how to shave. Maybe it was the monkeys...
181	** The rest of the male characters remain clean-shaven as well, even though there are no scenes of them grooming. Mr. Boosey probably has stubble because many "bad boy" Creator/SidJames characters do, but Professor Tinkle and Mr. Chumley are more likely to carry razors out of the entire cast, considering how high their authority. Meanwhile, Upsidasi and his hired help either don't grow as much facial hair or have special materials to shave with.
182	* PitTrap: Mr. Boosey makes the group dig one to trap the Noshas. The only problem is they dig so far down they have no way to get out themselves.
183	* PornStash: Professor Tinkle has a secret magazine that he shields like it was inappropriate to read in front of others. Although, when asked to go and birdwatch, he snaps that he's got "enough birds" [[note]]"bird" is British slang for a woman[[/note]] that he can look at, and then pulls out the book when his tent's empty.
184	* PostKissCatatonia: When June smooches Ug, he briefly freezes and pulls her in enthusiastically for another.
185	* PrefersGoingBarefoot: Ug remains barefoot throughout the movie. [[spoiler:Even when he's living in England and going to work in a well-paid job, he still doesn't wear shoes.]]
186	* PunnyName:
187	** '''Inigo Tinkle''' can be read as "I need to go tinkle".
188	** '''Upsidasi''', or "upsy daisy".
189	** Professor Tinkle tells Lady Bagley about a snake known as a '''vindscreen viper''' that moves in a way such as a windscreen wiper does.
190	** The cannibal tribe are called the '''Noshas''', "nosh" being a popular British slang term for "food" (the word is of Yiddish origin). It leads to this joke:
191	--->'''Professor Tinkle''': That's all we need... kosher Noshas!
192	** The LostWorld of attractive women is called '''Afrodisia''', while the attractive women are known as the '''Lubi-Dubis''', or "lubby dubbies" which is slang for attractive young women.
193	* ReportsOfMyDeathWereGreatlyExaggerated: [[spoiler:Walter]] is believed to be dead after his watch was found in the body of a crocodile, until he shows up and is revealed to be Tonka the Great, and revealed that his watch was eaten by a Nosha, who must've then been eaten by a crocodile.
194	* TheReveal: [[spoiler:That Lady Bagley's husband Walter isn't dead,]] but is in fact the one known to the Lubi-Dubis as Tonka the Great.
195	* RewatchBonus: [[spoiler:Walter]] can be spotted at Professor Tinkle's lecture in the beginning.
196	* RoadApples: The group has to make a detour to avoid all the elephant dung they encounter.
197	-->'''Professor Tinkle''': What is it? Why have we stopped?
198	-->'''Mr. Boosey''': See all that? Elephant's.
199	-->'''Professor Tinkle''': Well I didn't think it was ours.
200	* RunningGag: The gorilla turning up and terrorising the group.
201	* SanitySlippage: Mr. Chumley freaks out after being overworked during the mating ceremonies for three months straight.
202	* SayMyName: When Tonka is first revealed, Lady Bagley recognizes him and screams, "Walter!", revealing he is her long-lost husband.
203	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere:
204	** When Upsidasi's hired help hear the JungleDrums, they abandon the area, thinking it's the messages of the cannibalistic Nosha tribe. Mr. Boosey even says afterwards that they won't see them again.
205	** When Mr. Boosey hears the Noshas, he immediately tells the group they need to take the bare essentials and leave instantly.
206	** When Ug's attempted rescue goes wrong and sets off the ammunition crates, June pulls Ug out of the pot he's stuck in and the two flee, while Upsidasi sees them leave and gets the same idea, all three leaving Professor Tinkle, Mr. Chumley, Mr. Boosey and Lady Bagley behind.
207	** Double-subverted later. Professor Tinkle, Mr. Boosey and Mr. Chumley decide to do this after three months with the Lubi-Dubis, having grown fed up of being given unattractive mates. When they get given attractive mates, they decide to stay. But then Ug, thinking the three are in danger due to the soldiers aiming guns in their direction, makes an elephant call, coincidentally the same signal Mr. Boosey said he would give to Upsidasi to get the soldiers to open fire. The men reluctantly agree that they'll have to go now, with Tonka and Lady Bagley leaving with them.
208	* SexGod: Invoked with Walter, who is made the sperm donor of the Lubi-Dubis.
209	* SexySoakedShirt: June is soaked after her swim with Ug, and her wet clothing allows us to see her breasts.
210	* ShaggyDogStory: After all the trouble everyone went to trying to find the Oozlum bird, when Professor Tinkle unveils it at the end of the film [[spoiler:he discovers it has escaped.]]
211	* ShoutOut:
212	** The Lubi-Dubis were inspired by the films ''Untamed Women'' and ''Wild Women of Wongo''.
213	** Leda wears a dress in the mating ceremony that is similar to one that Creator/RaquelWelch wore in ''Film/OneMillionYearsBC''
214	* ShowerScene: Lady Bagley has one at the beginning of the film, exciting the men of the camp.
215	* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: The reason why June is single. She overlooks most of the men (including the suspicious behaviour of Mr. Boosey) and says that she is saving herself for someone special. Then the ignorant jungle boy Ug turns up and she falls in love.
216	* SlippingIntoStink: Mr. Boosey trips Professor Tinkle and sends him into a pile of elephant droppings.
217	-->'''Mr. Boosey''': Right in it.
218	* SmoochOfVictory: When Professor Tinkle catches Mr. Chumley trying to have his way with Lady Bagley, he takes her back to camp through the dark, and she kisses his cheek to show her gratitude.
219	* SomethingElseAlsoRises: When spotting Lady Bagley in the shower, Mr. Boosey's gun raises up.
220	* SomethingWeForgot: It's only after the PitTrap has been dug that the group realises they forgot to include a way for them to get out.
221	* SophisticatedAsHell: Professor Tinkle, and to a lesser extent, Mr. Chumley, especially when compared to the lower-class Mr. Boosey.
222	* StevenUlyssesPerhero: '''Leda''', the leader of the Lubi-Dubis.
223	* StewedAlive: The group fear of this happening when they're kidnapped by the Noshas.
224	-->'''Lady Bagley''': Do they just... drop us into boiling water?
225	-->'''Mr. Boosey''': Oh, no. Nothing as barbaric as that. They just drain the all the blood out of us first.
226	* StockFootage: A lot of animal footage and silhouettes of tribesmen running through the trees.
227	* StuffBlowingUp: Ug's attempt to rescue the group from the Noshas results in the ammunition crates catching fire and exploding.
228	* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Creator/FrankieHowerd plays Professor Inigo Tinkle, the kind of camp character usually played by Creator/KennethWilliams.
229	* {{Tagline}}: "The ''Film/CarryOn'' team in STARKEST Africa".
230	* TarzanBoy: Ug, what with the LoinCloth and use of VineSwing to get around.
231	* TemptingFate: Walter shows up in the men's tent to wish them luck in the mating ceremony, making Mr. Boosey laugh him off and claim they won't need it. At the ceremony, the women that are up to be ravished are chubby and unattractive, who have to drag the screaming men into their cubicles in order to begin the tradition.
232	* TimeSkip: After the first mating ceremony, the film cuts to three months later.
233	* ToiletHumour: A baboon poops on Mr. Chumley's binoculars while he peers through them.
234	* TrailersAlwaysSpoil: The trailer gives away TheReveal that Tonka the Great is actually Lady Bagley's husband Walter, and spoils the joke that this so-called "lover of many" is played by the camp Creator/CharlesHawtrey.
235	* TribalCarry: Features on the poster for the film.
236	* {{Undercrank}}: PlayedForLaughs like in many other ''Film/CarryOn'' films:
237	** When Professor Tinkle and Mr. Chumley run from the gorilla.
238	** When the group frantically dig a pit trap.
239	** When the group run from the elephant stampede.
240	* UnresolvedSexualTension: Between Professor Tinkle and Lady Bagley. Lady Bagley is quite charmed by him, but dearly misses her departed Walter, while Professor Tinkle finds her very attractive, and has to try and hold back his urges.
241	* UnwantedRescue: Just as Professor Tinkle, Mr. Boosey, Mr. Chumley and Walter are about to get the chance to make love to beautiful Lubi-Dubis, Ug makes an elephant call which Upsidasi mistakes for the rescue signal and deprives the four of their chance to have it off.
242	* VictoriasSecretCompartment: Lady Bagley's keeps a photograph of her (then) newborn son Cecil in her cleavage. When showing it to the rest of the camp, Mr. Boosey shows a look of disappointment, probably hoping that she was going to whip out her breasts.
243	* VineSwing: Ug uses this to travel around the jungle. He often ends up landing head first.
244	* VisualPun: At the mating ceremony, the male sacrifices are given three items -- a banana, a ball and chain, and a rabbit. The latter symbolising the phrase "at it like rabbits", ball and chain being a symbol of marriage, and a banana for ... [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything well...]]
245	* VSign: Mr. Boosey, Professor Tinkle, Mr. Chumley and Walter all do it in the photo of them seen at the end of the film, taken after they escaped from Afrodisia.
246	* WalkingShirtlessScene: Several characters (Ug, the Noshas, the bearers) are almost constantly shirtless.
247	* WardrobeMalfunction: Lady Bagley accidentally rips off Ug's LoinCloth.
248	* WatchOutForThatTree: Constantly occurs with Ug when he bangs his face into trees.
249	* WholePlotReference: Ug and June's subplot is a parody of ''Literature/{{Tarzan}}''.
250	* WouldHitAGirl: Walter lets Cecil know he's going to "give Mumsy-wumsy a smacksie-wacksie" for forgetting to change his nappy.
