      When Robert, disguised as the Doctor, kisses Elizabeth, the position of their heads makes it impossible for the mustache to transfer to Elizabeth's face.
    • Quotes

      [Robert Browning has arrived to take Elizabeth Barrett to Venice]

      Robert Browning: We can leave by the fire escape.

      Elizabeth Barrett: There *is* no fire escape!

      Robert Browning: Now, she remembers!

    Who wrote this rubbish?
    It wasn't till the end credits came up that I discovered that it was Talbot Rothwell,who wrote the original Carry Ones. Difficult to understand how they could make such an unfunny programme,but they did..Only Frankie Howerd was mildly funny.

    They must have given the audience some Christmas cheer to make them laugh so hysterically. Maybe they were watching a different show.
