Did You Know?

Edit
Trivia Ratigan was originally designed to look thin and weak, but when Vincent Price was chosen to play the role, his appearance was changed accordingly. See more »
Goofs When Ratigan talks to Hiram when he is near the bottle, we see Olivia in the bottle, wearing her Tam O'Shanter hat. But Fidget wore it earlier (along with Olivia's scarf and dress), and we don't see Olivia's clothing after that until the final scene so Olivia couldn't have gotten her clothes back just yet.

Quotes [last lines]
Dr. Dawson: [voice over] From that time on, Basil and I were a close team. We had many cases together, but I'll always look back on that first with the most fondness; my introduction to Basil of Baker Street, the great mouse detective.
