Poster for the film 'Carry on at Your Convenience'

Film publicity poster printed by W E Berry, Bradford: 'Carry on at Your Convenience', 1971.

'Carry On at Your Convenience' is a 1971 British comedy film, the 22nd release in the series of 31 Carry On films (1958–1992), and was the first box office failure of the series. This failure has been attributed to the film's attempt at exploring the political themes of the trade union movement, crucially portraying the union activists as idle, pedantic buffoons which, apparently, alienated the traditional working-class audience of the series. The film is known as 'Carry On Round the Bend' outside the UK.
