Sadly I have to report that I do remember this.  That's the one you got 
a lion branded on his shoulder if no one wanted to buy you at the slave 
auction - run by Marcus and Spensius.

Carry On films were special to me as a child - mostly because my mother 
thought they were stupid.  This meant that they simply HAD to be 
watched.  Our father agreed with us on this - and most probably for the 
same reason!  My mother disapproved of anything involving Kenneth 
Williams as a matter of principle so my sister and I always made a point 
of being home from school on time if he was reading Jackanory :)

heh.
