- Creator Backlash: Peter Cook later said that he was a bit disappointed in the film, feeling that he and Dudley Moore deferred too much to director Stanley Donen, whose vision of the material didn't always mesh with their own.
- Creator's Favorite Episode: Stanley Donen, whose directorial career included the likes of Singin' in the Rain, Charade and Two for the Road, said this was a particular favorite of his, calling it "a very personal film in that I said a great deal about what I think is important in life."
- Sleeper Hit: It was predictably a big hit in Britain, where Peter Cook and Dudley Moore were major comedy stars, but also did surprisingly well in the US, particularly among college students, and came to be regarded as a Cult Classic, ultimately leading to an American-oriented remake in 2000.
- Stunt Casting: Raquel Welch, who'd become an overnight sex symbol via Fantastic Voyage and One Million Years B.C.. She gets star billing even though she's in a supporting role and only appears in two scenes.
