Britannia Hospital

Streaming video - 1982

All the anarchic fun and vulgarity of the "Carry On" films, with an element of deeper social criticism. The action takes place in an ancient hospital that comes to resemble Britain at its most chaotic. The staff threaten to strike, demonstrators surround the place, a nosey BBC reporter pursues an anxious professor, while a royal visit degenerates into a total shambles. And all this to the music of Alan Price.
