- TriviaFor the first week of filming, Jim Dale and Peter Butterworth were not speaking to one another, even though they had the majority of scenes together. Unbeknownst to either of them, at the start of shooting, Kenneth Williams had told Butterworth that Dale 'hated his guts' and he then told Dale the same thing about Butterworth. Eventually a suspicious Dale asked Butterworth on set, if Williams had said anything to him and they discovered what had happened, whilst Williams stood nearby laughing at them. According to Dale, they were furious with Williams, and Dale went as far as to chase Williams around the studio.
- GoofsWhen Simpson enters the tent in disguise to rescue West and Nocker, he is bashed on the head, wrapped in a carpet and West says "Get his clothes". With no intervening action or dialogue, he is then seen crawling out of the tent in uniform. He has had no time to recover, nor has it been established that the other two have discovered their mistake.

Commandant Burger: Are you taking Le Pice?
Sergeant Nocker: Please sir, I'm trying to ask a serious question.

Featured review
This isn't the strongest Carry On entry, it's not the strongest script but it's a solid plot ably handled.
However, in the absence of Sid James who had filming commitments elsewhere, Phil Silvers was cast & he drags it down. Every scene he's in is just the same ridiculous, self-indulgent gurning, giving no consideration to others in the scenes or to the film as a whole. He sticks out like a sore thumb to the detriment of everyone, dragging the film from a solid B to a desperate C-, coupled with his inability or unwillingness to actually learn his lines like an actual professional actor, no wonder he was disliked by other cast members.
Thank God he was only in the one film.
