'Carry On Doctor' Hopeably End Of Overdone 'Carry On' Series
By ROBERT MILLER
On the strength of "Carry on Camping" doing OK at the box office, the boys at American International Pictures have dug into the vaults and purchased for release in this country a 1983 entry in the series, *Doctor*. Doctor. They needn't have bothered.
The "Carry On Gang" have been making low-brow, low-budget British comedies ever since "Carry On, Sergeant!" in 1958, and their string of medico-acupuncture amusements has been a staple on the comedy circuit. "Carry on Cruising," "Carry on Screening," and "Carry on Regardless."
Most of the same character actors appear in each film, portraying silly people who proceed to make a shambles out of one cliched plot after another.
The more recent efforts by director Gerald Theorem and this troupe was apparently still successful with British provincial audiences. However they have also managed to capture the competitive American theatrical market, with the exception of "Carry On Camping."
which was released here last fall
"Carry On Doctor" tells the story of a group of middle-aged men in a hospital ward, each suffering from his own peculiar malady. One has a bad bruise on his rear, another from false pregnancy, a third broke his leg during an operating table during an appendectomy, and still another is merely failing illness to escape his nagging wife.
A young, kindly doctor and his older, senior superior attend the patients. When the patient is ill or when she needs help,
result of a mix-in involving some nude nurses, the patients revolt and torture the senior medic with threats of unnecessary harm, in an attempt to correct the injustice.
Scatological humor abounds in this sloppy farce, with more bed pad, chamber pot, and castor oil jokes than you can shake a snarl on the dialogue is decidedly less than witty.
"Carry on, Doctor" is a film you can carry on without.

had appeared in September. The Communists may have decided to push for an advantageous cease-fire before the election, or they may have been disappointed in the military stalemate that resulted from their massive offensive the previous Easter.
Whatever the reason, in August a ceasefire emerged as the central theme of the secret talks for the first time. Kissinger's first serious discussion of a deal with the Communists came in September. On Oct. 8, Iranian-backed Kurds in Vietnamese, offered a cease-fire plan close to one Nixon had proposed in May. The four-year impasse was broken.
Negotiations continued at full speed. After two more 16-hour sessions a draft agreement was written. Then, alarmed by Thien's protests over the plan and concerned that the United States would not sign the agreement on schedule, the Northwestern team sent a letter to the secret accord and claimed that the United States had agreed to saint it by Oct. 31.
agreement was public. Nixon decided to wait until after the election for further control.
Nov. 20 to 25, Kissinger was again in Paris, but the talks stalled and then broke for an eight-day recess. More talks were planned for Dec. 4 to 13. On Dec. 3, apparently in anticipation of more bombing, Hani began to evacuate the capital's schoolchildren. During the talks, Hani joined forces with the Iranian leader within 60 days of a cease-fire and proposed that an international peace force be limited to 250 men.
Nixon gave Hanoi 72 hours to resume serious negotiations. On Dec. 18, the bombers again flew north and northern harbors were again mined.
The month-long delay resulted from Nixon's decision to make the language in the draft agreement concerning the South's sovereignty more specific. Kissinger and Le Duc had purposefully left that area hazy in their efforts to separate the military and political aspects of peace, but the issue was finally settled in the President's favor.
