Carry On Columbus is a 1992 British comedy film directed by Gerald Thomas and starring Jim Dale, Bernard Cribbins, Maureen Lipman, Peter Richardson and many other British comic actors.[2] It was written by Dave Freeman and John Antrobus.

It was the 31st and final release in the Carry On film series (1958–1992), a belated entry following 1978's Carry On Emmannuelle. It was produced to coincide with the 500th anniversary of Christopher Columbus' arrival in the Americas.
