Harry H. Corbett replaced Sidney James. James was committed to appearing as one of the robbers in the pantomime "Babes in the Wood" at the London Palladium, which ran until June 1966, and Corbett was drafted to replace him. Despite this, his character name, Sidney Bung, was kept. Sidney James' characters on TV and film were very often also called Sid, his real-life nickname.
At 97 minutes, this is the longest "Carry On" film.
Fenella Fielding wore the same, now iconic, red dress for the entire five weeks of filming. There were no doubles or replacements.
Production took five weeks and the budget was £179,000.
Although a vocal version of the theme sung by Boz Burrell was released as a single in the UK, many people believed the uncredited singer of the theme song was Jim Dale. However it was actually performed in the movie by Ray Pilgrim, the popular session singer, well known for his work for the Woolworths-owned Embassy label.
"Constable Slobotham: Happen to know what Doris was wearing? Albert: Yes, a sort of white frilly blouse with a dark green jacket and a long green skirt. Det Sgt. Bung: Did you get that down? Albert: Oh no, as I said, I've only known her for a year. Det Sgt. Bung: I was talking to my assistant!"
"Det Sgt. Bung: A young lady has disappeared and we're anxious to trace her whereabouts. Dr. Watt: Oh? Whereabouts? Det Sgt. Bung: Hereabouts. Albert: At ten o'clock. Det Sgt. Bung: Or thereabouts. Constable Slobotham: In this vicinity. Det Sgt. Bung: Or roundabouts. Constable Slobotham: We're police officers. Albert: Or layabouts."
