Trivia
For most of the filming Jim Dale and Peter Butterworth were not speaking to one another, even though they had the majority of scenes together.

Goofs
When Simpson enters the tent in disguise to rescue West and Nocker, he is bashed on the head, wrapped in a carpet and West says "Get his clothes". With no intervening action or dialogue, he is then seen crawling out of the tent in uniform. He has had no time to recover, nor has it been established that the other two have discovered their mistake.

Quotes
Sgt. Nocker: Hold it baby. How about giving us the Dance of the Two Veils?
Corktip: You mean seven veils.
Sgt. Nocker: Why bother with preliminaries?

Connections

Top review

Not bad, others are much better

Lesser Carry On which welcomes a guest star in the form of Phil Silvers. none other than Sergeant Bilko himself. Silvers, in his only Carry On, makes the most of a pretty disapointing script and the gang[Williams, Dale, Butterworth, Sims] are nearly completly eclipsed by the US star. Not a bad entry to the series, but one that goes way over the top and doesn't make the most of the stalwarts.
