Other mistake: Mick the orderly is Irish throughout the film, but when Nurse Dawson bumps into him and says, "You clumsy oaf," Mick's reply, "Look who's talking," is said in a London accent.
Trivia: After his performance as Charlie Sage in "Carry On Sergeant", Bob Monkhouse was asked by the producers to play a major role in this film. However, he turned down the film as he considered the salary being offered too low.
