Corrected entry: At one point during the bombing of the Consulate, the chandelier falls down onto the table. You can plainly see that the footage of this has been sped up to make it appear to fall quicker, due to the rapid movement of the characters' heads.

Correction: This isn't a film mistake. 'Fast motion' gags appear in almost all the Carry On films - a technique later copied by Jamie Uys in the Gods Must Be Crazy films. This is a film technique, not a mistake.
