Carry
On Teacher Trivia
- Ted Ray's comic genius was to be used in the next film
in the series (Carry On Constable), but idea was cut off in it's prime, as
he was under contract to ABC Films. When they saw Ted Ray was doing
well in another producers film they threatened to take Stuart Levy (boss of
Anglo - the films financiers) to court. Levy instructed Peter Rogers
to drop him from the line-up, replacing him with another great regular, Sid
James.
- Ted Ray's name on the billing on the credits get
special placing. This is only repeated twice again in the series - Bob
Monkhouse in Sergeant, and Phil Silvers in Follow That Camel - Peter Rogers
has always held that the titles are the stars.
