The Pot Carriers is a 1962 British comedy-drama film directed by Peter Graham Scott and produced by Gordon Scott for ABPC. The film stars Ronald Fraser, Paul Massie, Carole Lesley and Dennis Price.

The film is about a young prisoner called Rainbow as he struggles to adjust to his first stretch behind bars.
