Mistakes

After finding the soldiers slaughtered at the Khyber Pass, Sergeant Major Mcnutt and Private Widdle try to see off the Burpers with a "Maxim". The Maxims in use at this time look nothing like the gun they use, which appears to be loosely based on a Gatling gun. Additionally, it's mounted on a MkIV tripod, not introduced to the British Army until 1906, 11 years after the film is set. See more...

Trivia

During the dinner scene towards the end of the film, a piece of plaster falls from the ceiling onto Lady Ruff Diamond who says, "Oh dear! I seem to have got a little plastered!" Joan Sims ad-libbed this line. See more...

The entry you are changing the wording of is:

Title	Carry On Up the Khyber
Original entry	Ruff-Diamond's letter to Queen Victoria ends with the words "Love to Albert" but Prince Albert died in 1861 and the film is set in 1895. [But their son, Prince Albert, named after his father and to whom Ruff-Diamond is obviously referring, died in 1910.]

This is not the place to make corrections to completely wrong entries (or refute their corrections) - for that, please click here. All spelling changes are approved before going onto the site.

The existing entry is in the box below - please change whichever words or names which need correcting/altering. Please don't make any other comments, or remove text you aren't changing. Also, please DON'T alter character/actor names unless they're wrong - having a mix of character/actor references helps people work out who is who if they haven't seen the film. Finally, please check the whole entry, rather than just the thing you've spotted.
