Timothy Dalton was contracted to play William Lamb in this adaptation, but was replaced at the last moment. Dalton sued the production company for breach of contract and won.
In reality, Lady Caroline Lamb was addicted to laudanum, which is generally thought to be one of the contributing factors to her premature death. There is no reference to this addiction in this movie.
Final theatrical movie of Michael Wilding (Lord Holland).
This movie's critical and commercial failure dissuaded Robert Bolt from ever directing again and, some say, also led to the break-up of his marriage to Sarah Miles. (Bolt and Miles remarried in 1988, the union lasting up until Bolt's death in 1995.)
The maiden name of Lady Caroline Lamb was Lady Caroline Ponsonby.
"ADC to Wellington: [Caroline has just slashed her wrists] Good God, your Grace! She just tried to kill herself! Duke of Wellington: Nonsense, me boy. No difficulty about killing yourself, if you really mean to."
"Buckham: [Caroline and Buckham have been watching Byron bare-knuckle boxing] Haven't seen you about, milord. Lord Byron: No sir, haven't been about. Lady Caroline Lamb: Where *have* you been? Lord Byron: I've been in Turkey. Lady Caroline Lamb: Turkey? Was Turkey interesting? Lord Byron: Yes ma'am, very. Buckham: Was that where you learned to fight like a *savage*? Lord Byron: No sir, I learned that at Harrow."
