Corrected entry: The external shots of "Finisham Maternity Hospital" were not that of a hospital at all - they were of Maidenhead Town Hall, in Berkshire. The only change the set desginer made was to put up the appropriate sign on the outside of the building.
Carry On Matron (1972)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Gerald Thomas
Starring: Kenneth Williams, Sid James, Charles Hawtrey, Sidney James, Joan Sims
Revealing mistake: When Hattie Jacques and Barbara Windsor see Madeline Smith about her baby, you can see that the 'baby' is an obvious doll.
Mr. Tidey: Well, what's happened?
Matron: I'm afraid it was another false alarm, Mr Tidey. You may as well go back to work.
Mr. Tidey: Go back to work? It was due three weeks ago.
Mr. Tidey: Well I'm sorry but babies tend to arrive when they feel like it. There's nothing we can do about it.
Mr. Tidey: That's a fine state of affairs, innit eh? We'd soon be in a right old mess if we ran the railways like that.
Matron: I was under the impression that you did.
Trivia: For his cameo appearance in the film, Jack Douglas was sent a crate of twelve bottles of Dom Perignon champagne by producer Peter Rogers.
