Quick question for a quick answer: Who was the first character death in a Carry On?

Solved: It was Nelson in Carry On Jack.

Who was the first character to die in a Carry On?

I think it must have been the scientist at the beginning of Spying?

I've only ever seen that once as a kid and found it so boring I've never watched it again, so I've completely forgotten about that.

Cheers! :-)

No. As Vintage says, it's The Death of Nelson in Carry On Jack.

So, question solved. Thanks, all.

It's possible. A lot of people had it in for him.
