Most modern recordings and performances of the Mikado's solo, "A More Humane Mikado" feature a bloodthirsty laugh between the verses. This touch was added by Darrell Fancourt, a D'Oyly Carte performer from 1920-1953, and has been copied ever since - which is why the laugh is not performed by Richard Temple.
Mike Leigh was so frustrated with the continued relegation of his movies to art house cinemas instead of wide release that he joked that he would have cast Arnold Schwarzenegger as both Gilbert and Sullivan if his budget had permitted it.
Not only did all the actors do their own singing, but everyone in the cast, including the pit orchestra and the actors who play instruments in the film, actually played the music they are seen to play.
When Richard Temple performs "A More Humane Mikado" during the dress rehearsal, the script cuts out the third verse. It may have been because of time constraints, but the original verse included the word "nigger," and was not changed until the 1940s.
Though the film shows Gilbert coming up with the idea for The Mikado after visiting the Japanese exhibition, in reality he had already finished writing the first act of the libretto by the time the exhibition came to London.
"Helen Lenoir: The more I see of men, the more I admire dogs."
"Gilbert: Madam, I had rather spend an afternoon in a Turkish bath with my mother than visit the dratted dentist."
