Trivia: This was the final "Carry On" movie to feature Charles Hawtrey. Apparently, the actor's addiction to alcohol had worsened since making "Carry On Cowboy" and producer Peter Rogers said this made Hawtrey rather difficult and impossible to deal with, even having to give him black coffee before going in front of the camera. At the end of the filming, the crew's patience had run out and Hawtrey was subsequently fired.
