First time I've seen it. Great fun!

Wot, no Jon Pertwee ?

[@nicholascecic1270]

Pertwee was cast in the film but replaced with Ronald Shiner. This happened after he heard that Dennis Price wouldn’t be cast because of his sexuality and demanded that Price join him and Leslie Phillips.

@@nicholascecic1270 yow, didn't know that

[@tangmerebob2395]

No Ronnie Barker either

[@nicholascecic1270]

@ Him and the rest of the supporting cast (Heather Chasen, Tenniel Evans, Michael Bates) weren’t asked to appear at all. Richard Caldicot actually is in the film, but sadly only pops up briefly in an uncredited role.
