"Carry on Jack" is the eighth movie in the "Carry On" film series and was released in 1963. Most of the usual "Carry On" team are missing from this movie; only Kenneth Williams and Charles Hawtrey are in the majority of the movie. As such, it is generally considered one of the weakest of the series from the 1960s era. Jim Dale has a five minute cameo.

"Carry on Jack" was the first "Carry On" film with a historical setting and period costumes.

The film stars Bernard Cribbins, Donald Houston and Cecil Parker. Ed Devereaux and Juliet Mills are in supporting roles.
