'''''Follow That Camel''''' is a ''Film/CarryOn'' movie that was released in 1967 as the fourteenth movie in the series. It stars regulars Creator/KennethWilliams, Creator/JimDale, Charles Hawtrey, Angela Douglas, Creator/JoanSims, Peter Butterworth, and Bernard Bresslaw. This was the second ''Carry On'' film that didn't have the "Carry On" phrase proceeding the verb/phrase, but is sometimes stuck on when listed as a feature in the TV Guide. Newcomer Anita Harris joins the cast, as well as Creator/PhilSilvers in his only ''Carry On'' film. It wasn't meant to be a member of the franchise, despite the same crew and the UniversalAdaptorCast, but was reluctantly stuck on there to boost the box office. (Interestingly, in some countries, the movie was released as ''Carry On In The Legion''.)
