Did You Know?
| Trivia | Valerie Leon was dubbed throughout the entire film by *June Whitfield. Although the lip-syncing/ADR, and vocal styling choice of the two character voices June Whitfield uses, along with the sound recording acoustics, makes it hard to tell she's doing two voices, even in the same shot. *However, many years later, June Whitfield reportedly told "Carry On" historian, Robert Ross, that she could not recall dubbing Leon's voice in this picture.

Connie Philpotts:
It's your girls I'm talking about, I've heard them all night long, doors banging ... Sid Fiddler: Blimey, when you've got young dollies around you have to expect a bit of banging. Connie Philpotts: Well, I expect you to get them into bed at a reasonable hour. Sid Fiddler: I promise you, I'll do my very best! See more » |
