Carry On at Your Convenience was the fourth Carry On film of the 1970's, and the 22nd of the franchise, starring Sid James, Kenneth Williams, Charles Hawtrey, Joan Sims, Hattie Jacques, Bernard Bresslaw, Kenneth Cope, Patsy Rowlands, Jacki Piper, and Richard O'Callaghan.It is noted for being the first Box Office Bomb in the Carry On series; with few exceptions, most of the films that followed it were flops as well. This was mostly due to the portrayal of the working class as stupid and lazy, and the middle class as superior and clever; most of the audience of the Carry On films were the "stupid and lazy" working class, so they reacted rather negatively - some even boycotting the movie when it was first released.At Your Convenience starred Cope as lazy union representative Vic Spanner, who works in the Wm.C. Boggs & Son toilet factory, run by its traditionalist owner W.C. Boggs (Williams) and foreman Sid Plummer (James). He organizes strikes over the most minor of inconveniences (or when he wants to watch a football match), much to the disgust of the workers - except for Bernie Hulke (Bresslaw), his Dumb Muscle - the company they work under, and his mother, Agatha (Renée Houston). The firm cannot afford the constant strikes because they are losing loads of money, yet Vic holds yet another strike over the banning of tea servings on the factory floor.Alongside this fiasco, there are other problems around. Sid is divided over caring about the situation because he is attracted to factory worker Chloe Moore (Sims) who is unsatisfied with her Traveling Salesman husband Fred (Bill Maynard), and also because he is earning lots of gambling money from his wife Beattie's (Jacques) budgie, Joey, who makes correct predictions over the horse races; Mr. Boggs' son Lewis (O'Callaghan) is competing with Vic over the affections of Sid's daughter Myrtle (Piper), who doesn't seem to be able to make up her mind; product designer Charles Coote (Hawtrey) is considering manufacturing 1,000 bidets for the wealthy King Frauzi of Aslam, even though Mr. Boggs is unimpressed with the idea; and Mr. Boggs' secretary Hortense Withering (Rowlands) is madly in love with him, much to his displeasure.It seems the works' outing to Brighton may hold the solutions to many of the firm's issues however, as Hilarity Ensues. | |

Strip Poker: Mr. Coote's favourite game. He frequently plays with Agatha, offers a game to an uncomfortable Bernie and tries to teach Miss Withering how to play on the coach to Brighton. | |

All Men Are Perverts | |
| Carry On at Your Convenience / int_129749df | comment |
All Men Are Perverts: Depending on your interpretation, most of the men in the movie are this (Mr. Boggs, Bernie and Fred being the only exceptions). Sid, for definite. He is frigid and snarky towards his wife Beattie, and has implied jealousy over their pet budgie Joey, who Beattie has become obsessed with. He spends the movie lusting after neighbour (and fellow employee) Chloe Moore and ludicrously tries to impress her with claims of having sex every day after she says that husband Fred prefers to treat her on a Saturday night. During the domestic scenes after this (Sid's obvious innuendos that soar over Beattie's head), it's no wonder that the couple have only one child. Vic is a Hopeless Suitor to Myrtle. His obnoxious attitude and laziness is not attractive to anyone in the movie (not even the audience, considering he's portrayed as the villain), which might come from his bitterness of being a grown man who still lives with his mother. (Even his Dumb Muscle partner Bernie is implied to have a more successful life than him as there is no implication that he still lives with a parent, and he even owns a motorcycle). He's constantly in a cold war with much richer, much successful Lewis, who is much nicer than him in comparison. You'd think that this would be another case of Single-Target Sexuality, but when the new canteen girl arrives, Vic becomes googly-eyed and protective of her. (Also see Virgin–Whore Complex on this page) This heavily implies that Vic probably doesn't have any feelings for Myrtle to begin with - she's the only young girl in the workplace that isn't married or seen meeting up with a man during/after work, so he'd do anything to get into her pants (probably implies that he's a virgin, too). Lewis, mostly for the possible reasons for Vic above, even though he's a nice rich boy. It's notable that when Mr. Boggs calls him to reveal that he is closing the factory, Lewis rushes to stop him before being briefly distracted by the sight of Myrtle walking into the room in a see-through dressing gown with her underwear on underneath, and physically tries to resist kissing her and carrying her back to the bed. Mr. Coote has an obsession with playing Strip Poker - he frequently plays with Agatha, offers to teach Miss Withering how to play on the coach trip to Brighton, and even offers Bernie of all people to play with him. | |

Unions Suck | |
| Carry On at Your Convenience / int_14e31793 | comment |
Unions Suck: Vic Spanner is a lazy worker at a toilet factory who is (supposedly) the head of the factory trade union and organised worker strikes whenever he doesn't want to work. When, near the end, the workforce ignores him and abandon their strike, in real life that would have rendered his position as union representative untenable and he would have resigned as representative immediately. In a subsequent scene, he is shown as still the union representative, although now without his tendency to call strikes. | |

| Carry On at Your Convenience / int_50ca4422 | comment |
Unresolved Sexual Tension: Unusually for a Carry On film, Sid and Chloe reluctantly decide not to act on their attraction to each other, as they are both already married (if not especially happily) and don’t want to be the subject of neighbourhood gossip. Very unusually for a Carry On film is that this moment is actually played for sadness. | |

Punny Name | |
| Carry On at Your Convenience / int_6d7026fa | comment |
Punny Name: Vic's N.U.C.I.E. rulebook becomes a lot funnier when you realise "nookie" is slang for sex. The first film Lewis and Myrtle see takes place on Koo Koo Island ("cuckoo" is slang for a crazy person). The nightclub Lewis and Myrtle go to is called the Whippit Inn, or "whip it in". The order for bidets needs to be finished by the time of the Feast of Abanibble, which sounds like "have a nibble" (slang for sex) which is fitting as that is when King Frauzi of Aslam "visits" his 1,000 wives. In his Gipsy Rose disguise, Sid "accidentally" calls Miss Withering "Miss Widdling", which is children's slang for urination. | |

Entitled Bastard: The first strike Vic calls in the film is because of the management stopping the tea rounds, a privilege given by the management. Sid points out that they were still allowed to have tea in the canteen, so their rights weren't being taken away, but Vic ignores him. | |

After Miss Withering undresses Mr. Boggs she reassures him that he's not too different from other men she's seen, causing him to peek at his penis under the covers once she leaves the room. | |

Nice Guy | |

Nice Guy: The Plummer family members that are in Love Triangles have one of these as either a suitor or a rival: Chloe's husband Fred, who admits to his wife that he's a bit ashamed that he isn't around to spend time with her, and points out his concern for Sid's sudden fascination with her. To be fair, Chloe would probably be making a big mistake if she decided to cheat on Fred with Sid - Sid's persona implies that he's only satisfied with women if they're up for having sex with him 24/7, which is probably why he is cold towards his wife. Lewis is much nicer and caring than Myrtle's rival suitor Vic, and tries to do anything to save his father's company. Shame about what happens much later (see Took a Level in Jerkass for more information). | |

Shout-Out | |
| Carry On at Your Convenience / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Sid compares Miss Withering testing a toilet to Job on a monument. Vic gets everyone to agree to his strike when he reminds them that the Rovers are playing at home today. note The teams called Rovers then in the Football League were those of Blackburn, Bristol, Doncaster, and Tranmere, but the characters' accents fit none of these locales and all of them are several hours' journey from Brighton. Of course, Vic might be a fan of his local non-league side - if they are a non-league club without floodlights, that would explain them playing a midweek match at 3 pm. Sid sarcastically asks Beattie if she'll call the RSPCA on him for giving Joey a honey ring, despite the existence of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds. Sid bets on horses named Cleopatra, Tiny Tim, and Pollyanna. The Sweet Glory of Love was mentioned to have been refused a certificate by the British Board of Film Censors. The Rifle Range has balloons of Dumbo, Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and Pluto as prizes to be won. "Me Ol' Bamboo" plays as Mr. Boggs' group rush into the Victoria Bar. The Potty Emergency montage rings strongly of a similar coach tour piece by Marty Feldman. | |

Jerkass | |
| Carry On at Your Convenience / int_eb8ec7c8 | comment |
Jerkass: Vic doesn't care how much money is being lost or how close the factory is to closing because he only wants to abuse his power from the union. Lewis balances on a thin line on whether the viewer likes him or not. It might be satisfying to see a younger character being the complete opposite of the self-centered Vic, but he also resorts to unnecessary violence when he doesn't get his way and practically kidnaps his crush in order to win her affection back. | |

| Carry On at Your Convenience / int_f08f8f89 | comment |
Comedic Underwear Exposure: Vic's pants are ripped off by Bernie's motorbike leaving his underwear exposed in the middle of the street. Lewis accidentally tears off Myrtle's skirt at the Whippet Inn revealing her panties to the whole nightclub, and in a Deleted Scene did the same to a bunny waitress. | |

Distracted by the Sexy: When Vic is in the middle of walking out on the job, he runs into a well-endowed young lady who has just been assigned to the factory by the labour exchange as the new canteen girl. He immediately turns around to lead her back to the factory, saying they have a "lovely pair of canteens". | |

Comically Missing the Point: As Fred discusses Chloe's body and how men lust over it, Chloe retorts that he's jealous, leading Fred to remark that wouldn't be seen dead having a pair of breasts like that. When Vic gives the strikers weapons to stop the others from coming back to work, Bernie asks for a cricket bat over a tennis racquet, because he doesn't know how to play tennis. In a Deleted Scene where Mr. Boggs meets with trade unionist Mr. Allcock: | |
