Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaKen Annakin did not like working with Tony Curtis, calling him "brittle, self-centered and a bully".
- Goofs(at around 9 mins) When they pull in front of "Armitage Motors" the chimneys and cooling towers of a coal-fired power plant can be seen in the background. While this type of cooling tower is incorrectly thought to be used only on nuclear plants, they were actually first used in the UK on a coal-fired plant in 1924.
- Quotes

Willi Schickel: Who is caring what his excellence is saying, we're Germans. There's only one place for Germans, that's First!
- Crazy creditsClosing sequence: Revolving Automobile Tire segues into the Paramount Logo.
- Alternate versionsIn the US, there were 2 releases: a 93 minute version and an 122 minute version.
Featured review
The movie isn't that funny, although you probably don't notice that what with the great actors on display - The wonderful gap toothed Terry-Thomas as a kind of Dick Dastardly Figure, Eric Sykes as his Mutley style sidekick,It has Tony Curtis romancing Susan Hampshire & The great comic actors Peter Cook & Dudley Moore as British Army men who have the best scenes and funniest lines & Gert Frobe (Goldfinger) as a escaped convict transporting stolen treasures. The scenery is wonderful as they travel throughout Europe Mostly Britain and France and has a nice 1920's feel, just don't expect many laughs, just sit back and enjoy some of the best British Actors many of who are no longer with us.
All in all a likeable caper with great performances
Rating 8/10
