History WMG / ChittyChittyBangBang

[[WMG:Caractacus is related to [[Film/BackToTheFuture Doc Brown.]]]]

After the events in Vulgaria, the main characters simply returned to the beach for another day of fun and frolicking. They aren't phased by the events that occurred because unusual things often happen in their world. Alternatively, the events in Caractacus's story actually take place after the events of the movie. Baron von Bomburst had to have heard about the flying car from somewhere, right?

[[WMG:The Baroness Bomburst of Vulgaria is a {{Vampire}}, albeit one that can stand sunlight.]]

* Alternatively, Severus might be descended from one of the Child Catcher's ''siblings'', since the Child Catcher [[ChildHater wouldn't be likely to have kids himself]]. If Severus ''is'' directly descended from the Child Catcher, maybe the Child Catcher knocked up some poor woman (who presumably hit the BrainBleach immediately after that encounter) and never knew he had a kid.

* Actually, if you look closely at Chitty during this sequence, you can see her wheels are rapidly spinning, meaning that they are actually drawng air in to the inflatable skirt, making it in to an actual hovercraft. But the effectis the same.

* Supported by the novel, oddly enough, in that Chitty Chitty Bang Bang doesn't use an inflatable raft -- she turns her wheels under her carriage, becoming the watergoing counterpart to Doc Brown's flying DeLorean.

Both characters drive gadget-laden, eccentric sports cars, both are inventors, both have dogs named after a famous inventor (Potts had Edison, Doc had Einstein), both make prototype, but failed, inventions, and when both actually succeed (Toot Sweets and Time Travel, respectively), both exclaim "I've finally invented something that works!"

She might suspect how the Baron is wanting to off her and thinks that if any girl grows old enough without a good deal of toil they might catch his eye.

* Except that Creator/RoaldDahl didn't write the book the movie was based on, he only adapted it. [[JamesBond Ian Fleming]] did. Think about [[MindScrew that one]] for a bit.

* Desmond Llewellyn, who played Q in every Bond movie from ''Film/FromRussiaWithLove'' to ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough''[[hottip:*:Except ''Film/LiveAndLetDie'']] plays Coggins, the junkyard owner who sells Potts the old car that becomes Chitty.
