Carry On Sergeant is a 1958 comedy movie, the first of the long-running "Carry On" series. The film follows the training of a motley bunch of called-up recruits at their National Service depot. Prior to his retirement, Sgt. Grimshaw (William Hartnell) takes on a bet that he can produce his first ever champion platoon by altering his approach, from barking orders to kindly encouragement. The ensemble cast features Bob Monkhouse, Kenneth Williams, Charles Hawtrey, Shirley Eaton, Kenneth Connor, Bill Owen, Eric Barker, Terry Scott, and Cyril Chamberlain.
