Children in Egypt

Saw this in 1974 at the pictures. It was a six part children’s serial, probably British, that played before the main movie each week. It was black & white, and featured a teenage boy & teenage girl. She had a pageboy hairstyle with black hair. As a ten year old I thought the girl was absolutely gorgeous! They were on a camel train with adults heading towards the pyramids. There was intrigue of some sort. I never got to see the next episode. Does this strike a chord with anyone?

1960s comedy safari movie

1960s British comedy similar in style to “The Gods Must Be Crazy”. An English couple head overseas on safari. The woman is the sensible one whereas the man is the naive, silly one. He gets his jeep stuck on a muddy bush track (the film is sped up as he rushes about trying to extract himself from his predicament). The film is slightly notable for the fact that I recognize some of the tunes played throughout the movie. Any ideas anyone?
