Goofs

Michael Wilding and Anna Neagle misquote the beginning of a poem by William Allingham (whose title is the same as the first line) as "Four ducks on a pond,/The blue sky beyond." It should be "Four ducks on a pond,/A grass-bank beyond,/A blue sky of spring/And birds on the wing."

Uncle Joshua refers to the girls in a Gauguin painting (which is not shown) as being "slant-eyed." Gauguin painted the natives of Tahiti, in the South Pacific. They are not slant-eyed.

Richard leaves a note telling Uncle Joshua where to find his stolen Gauguin (which he misspells as "Gaugin"). But it is never explained how Richard finds this out or even how he comes in contact with the crooks.

Uncle Joshua's plan is to buy a picture from the crook (whom he suspects of stealing his own picture) so that he can be arrested when he tries to cash it at the bank. But there is nothing illegal about the transaction, unless the picture being sold was stolen, and this is never mentioned. So the police would have no reason to arrest him.

Richard, the son of a marquess, takes a job as a footman, but none of the other servants finds it odd--indeed, even notices--that their new colleague is obviously, given his accent, an aristocrat.
