13* CreatorBacklash:
14** Creator/KennethWilliams wrote in his diary:
15--->Read the ''Carry On Behind'' script. It is the ''worst'' I've ever read. The part for me, Roland Crump, is small, it is unfunny, and is mostly concerned with heavily contrived slapstick. Don't know why on earth they offer it to me.
16** Creator/LizFraser wouldn't count ''Behind'' as one of the ''Film/CarryOn'' films she had been in because she didn't like how small her role was.
17* DeletedScene:
18** Professor Crump's lecture in the first scene was cut down as evidenced by stills on the DVD and some choppy edits.
19** Major Leep and Barnes crossing paths while looking for Daphne's mynah bird and Ollie respectively.
20** Major Leep starting a fight with the plasterer over some supposedly crooked plaster slabs.
21** Creator/LarryDann recalled on the DVDCommentary that there were more digging scenes filmed that ended up being cut.
22** In a 2023 interview, Jenny Cox revealed that the stripper, Veronica, was supposed to have more of a romantic storyline with Creator/KennethConnor that was cut, including a scene near the end of the film where Veronica and Major Leep go on a date in his caravan. While the aforementioned scene was filmed, several others weren't due to schedule issues caused by an unnamed actress (but presumed to be Creator/AdriennePosta) showing up late and taking extra time in wardrobe.
23* DescendedCreator: Creator/GeraldThomas provided the voice for Daphne's mynah bird. This had been the second time he'd done a voice recording for a ''Film/CarryOn'' since ''Film/CarryOnScreaming''.
24* DVDCommentary: With ''Film/CarryOn'' historian Robert Ross talking to writer Dave Freeman, Creator/JackDouglas (Ernie Bragg), Creator/PatsyRowlands (Linda Upmore) and Creator/LarryDann (Clive).
25* EditedForSyndication:
26** Professor Crump's lecture loses the CueCardPause segment when aired on TV.
27** A scene discussing underwear was cut out from a 2021 airing on [[Creator/{{ITV}} ITV3]].
28** When aired over the Easter holidays in 2023, all the scenes where Professors Vooshka and Crump mistake a bottle of tomato sauce for blood and the brief scene of Professor Vooshka showing some skin at the end were cut.
29* EnforcedMethodActing: When Ernie falls into the water-filled hole, Creator/JackDouglas wasn't told where the hole would be, so the fall was genuine.
30* FakeRussian: The German Creator/ElkeSommer as Professor Anna Vooshka.
31* HostilityOnTheSet:
32** Creator/KennethWilliams couldn't stand Creator/ElkeSommer due to her bad breath and lack of experience filming comedies (going as far as to refuse to look at her at times), was furious with Creator/GeorgeLayton after he accidentally sliced his toe and didn't want to have Jenny Cox sit on his knee during the strip tease scene.
33** Creator/LizFraser had a small falling-out with Creator/PatriciaFranklin. During filming, they had appeared in different episodes of the same series, and Franklin's episode was getting more publicity than Fraser's, which made Fraser rather cross.
34** Creator/JoanSims was rather fed up by the end of filming due to the constant schedule hold-ups and poor weather on set and refused to attend the wrap party. After Jenny Cox told everyone that she had gone home, Creator/KennethConnor drove after her to bring her back.
35* LoopingLines: Ernie's cries of "Phwaaay!" during Veronica's striptease were clearly dubbed over later as Creator/JackDouglas' mouth does not move.
36* OnSetInjury:
37** Creator/GeorgeLayton accidentally sliced Creator/KennethWilliams' toe with a scalpel while filming the hospital scene.
38** Creator/SherrieHewson and Creator/CarolHawkins nearly froze while filming their bikini scenes. The scenes were filmed in snowy weather, causing their skin to turn so blue that the makeup department had to paint their skin yellow to make it look normal!
39* PopCultureUrbanLegends: Some fans believe a story that allegedly Creator/SidJames filmed a cameo before he was due to tour in ''The Mating Game''. No such scene has ever been alluded to by cast or crew.
40* RealLifeRelative: Creator/KennethConnor's (Major Leep) son Jeremy played the student with an ice cream at the beginning of the film.
41* RecycledScript: The film is a rehash of ''Film/CarryOnCamping'' set in a caravan park as opposed to a campsite.
42* ThrowItIn: Barnes' line about Ollie's wet nose when he sniffs him was ad-libbed by Creator/PeterButterworth.
43* UncreditedRole:
44** Director Creator/GeraldThomas provides the voice of Daphne's mynah bird.
45** Creator/SamKelly as the projectionist at Professor Crump's lecture.
46** Creator/BrendaCowling and {{Creator/Lucy Griffiths|1919}} as a wife and a woman wearing a hat respectively at Professor Crump's lecture.
47* UnderageCasting: Although Creator/JoanSims plays Creator/PatsyRowlands' mother in this film, Sims was only eight months older than Rowlands.
48* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
49** Creator/TalbotRothwell had been planning a UsefulNotes/WorldWarI ''Film/CarryOn'' while ''Film/CarryOnDick'' was in pre-production, but had to retire due to exhaustion.
50** Roland Crump's surname was originally Plumcott.
51** Creator/SidJames and Creator/BarbaraWindsor were set to play Fred Ramsden and Norma Baxter, but were out of the British Isles at the time of filming. Their roles were taken over by Creator/WindsorDavies (at the suggestion of Creator/JackDouglas) and Creator/AdriennePosta.
52** Creator/HattieJacques was hoped to return, but unfortunately ''Film/CarryOnDick'' was her final ''Film/CarryOn'' due to her health.
53** Chris Gannon was booked to play the role of the barman. However, he was offered a better paid job that clashed with the shooting schedule, so his agent arranged for Creator/KennethWaller to take over the part.
54** The BBFC fought to have the shots of Veronica the stripper's bare breasts cut from the opening scene and a scene with Linda being viewed through a caravan window due to her "dangling breasts", but they were left in as a gift from John Trevelyan, who was finally standing down from the BBFC after overseeing the edits in the ''Film/CarryOnSeries'' for most of its history.
55* WorkingTitle: ''Love On Wheels'', ''Carry On Carrying On'', ''Carry On Caravan'', ''Carry On In a Caravan'' and ''Carry On Caravanning''.
56* WriteWhoYouKnow: Daphne's mynah bird was inspired by writer Dave Freeman's own mynah bird.
