* MultipleLanguagesSameVoiceActor: Ilse Steppat, Irma Bunt's actress, dubbed herself in the German version of the film. Makes sense since in the original, she was playing a German-speaking character who could also speak English. However, since she died not long after the film released, the new scenes added in the Blu-Ray edition had her dubbed by Joseline Gassen instead.

** According to Bernard Horsfall (Campbell), the film's stunt co-ordinator had to be restrained from physically attacking Lazenby after he was so rude to a barmaid that he made her cry.

Creator Chosen Casting is when the casting of an adaptation is influenced by the creator of the work being adapted, which in this case would be Ian Fleming. If the choice was made by the adaptation's creators, it doesn't count.


* CreatorChosenCasting: George Baker was cast because he was Peter R. Hunt's neighbour at the time.

* DeletedScene: An early action scene set in London was cut, which notably would've been the first such scene in the series. Set after Bond's visit to the College of Arms, it would've seen Bond chase Hillary Bray's assistant across the rooftops, before going into the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Post_Office_Railway London Post Office Railway]], where the assistant would've been thrown in front of a train and killed. Reportedly, only the on-location parts of the chase were filmed, and several stills of it exist, but the scene was cut before the soundstage portions of the chase could be filmed.

* TroubledProduction: The film had a few stuntmen accidents and Creator/GeorgeLazenby had conflicts with the director and the producers. On top of that, the press had a field day with the production and created huge stories out of the most innocuous events; lead actress Creator/DianaRigg's off-hand quip about eating garlic prior to a scene resulted in stories that the two leads could barely even stand to work together (which, to be fair, wasn't ''completely'' untrue), while the news that George Baker would be overdubbing some of Lazenby's lines -- specifically the ones where Bond was impersonating Baker's character, Sir Hillary Bray -- ended up being interpreted as Lazenby having proven to be such a terrible actor that the producers had been forced to have Baker overdub his entire performance. These stories naturally made the already-strained mood on the set even worse, and played a part in Lazenby's decision not to return to the role.
