* TroubledProduction: While filming the start of the Hong Kong chase scene, a policeman spotted Burt Kwouk hop onto the Vespa hotdog cart and take off with it as the assumed owner of the cart obviously objected. Not knowing it was part of a film being shot and, somehow failing to notice the film equpiment and crew, flagged down Kwouk and arrested him for stealing the scooter, resulting in Blake Edwards having to visit the nearby police station with production notes and the actor portraying the cart's owner to convince the police that the scooter theft was all set up for a film being made and Kwouk wasn't just an opportunistic thief.

** The Le Club Phut sequence in Revenge originally had Clouseau and Cato masquerading as ''black'' clubgoers, funny Afros and all. However, Creator/PeterSellers and Blake Edwards's increasingly strained working relationship got in the way and they warred over how they would pull it off; ultimately the sequence had to be scrapped and substituted with the simpler sequence of the two trying to spy on the club from outside.

Arguably, given the questionable stereotyping that would have been involved, perhaps this was for the best.
