    • Trivia
      Filming in Kilkenny, Ireland, caused great controversy and consternation in March 1968 when it was announced that several nude scenes would have to be filmed.
    • Goofs
      When the Night Watchman sees Gossip writing in his diary, he comments, "Thinks he's another Master Pepys!" Samuel Pepys's private, encrypted diary was not published until 1825 (the century after the action of "Lock Up Your Daughters!" takes place).
    • Quotes

      Gossip: [Explaining in rhyme why Charles II's mistress Lady Castlemaine was not punished for her immorality] Hanc Caesari presem / A fluctu defendit.

      Sir Tunbelly Clumsey: What does it mean? My Greek is not of the best.

      Gossip: 'Tis Latin, and translates thus: 'The reason that she is not ducked / Is that by Caesar she is... '

      [Sir Tunbelly is unable to complete the rhyme]

    Worth a look
    I reviewed this movie when it was released in 1969. At that time I thought it was absolutely rib-splitting. It deals mainly with the attempts of an English Fop (we're talking the 1700's here) to maintain the chastity of his daughters. It is ribald fare and the comedy a bit along the lines of TOM JONES, but it is worth the price of admission just to see this father, fake cheek mole plopped in place, his finery and lace cuffs set just so, rush from situtation to situation in little prig-ish strides.

    I would love to see it released on Video.
