Production Notes
The original script for Carry On Again Doctor raised problems with Rank's legal advisor, who felt it was too similar to an unfilmed 'Doctor' script that Talbot Rothwell, writer of Carry On Again Doctor, had previously submitted to Betty Box. Most notably, both scenarios featured the medical mission/slimming potion idea. As Box did not take up the option on Rothwell's 'Doctor' script, however, it was felt there were no legal problems to the use of these ideas in this film.

Famous quotes containing the words production and/or notes:
“From the war of nature, from famine and death, the most exalted object which we are capable of conceiving, namely, the production of the higher animals, directly follows. There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved.”
—Charles Darwin (1809–1882)
“The night is itself sleep
And what goes on in it, the naming of the wind,
Our notes to each other, always repeated, always the same.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
