"This time the jokes really are ancient!

Roland Crump, played by Carry On favourite Kenneth Williams, is an eminent archaeologist excavating a Roman Town that just happens to lie beneath a caravan site at the height of the summer season.

An enthusiastic, but lacklustre affair, this one. All concerned do their very best to make it work, but there isn't really enough here to sustain an entire film. Worth watching, just for some classic performances by Williams and the gang, but far a from memorable film.
