Carry on Loving

Trivia: The photo of Sally Martin that the bartender shows Mr. Bliss at the cocktail bar is a publicity shot of Jacki Piper taken on the set of Carry On Up the Jungle (1970).

Trivia: Charles Hawtrey initially turned down the role of James Bedsop because producer Peter Rogers said that Hawtrey should not have third billing due to the size of Hattie Jacques' part, and his part being small. But in the end, Rogers relented.

Trivia: Before Sidney Bliss enters the lift to go to Esme Crowfoot's flat, he sees a couple kissing and asks, "All right?" The original line in the script was "Going up?", but was changed in post-production as the producers felt it was too risqué even for a Carry On film.

Trivia: The cream used during the food fight sequence towards the end of the film was real. Jacki Piper actually suffered an ear ache when Joan Sims smashed a cream pie into the side of her face.

Trivia: Due to a matinee, Richard O'Callaghan was not able to do the food fight sequence towards the end of the film and therefore his close-up was edited in later.

Continuity mistake: When Jenny pushes Terence's face into a cream pie in the food fight sequence towards the end of the film, the holder containing a bottle of champagne behind them changes position between shots.
