While filming scenes in Llantrisant, Wales, Lee Evans fell from a window and landed on a large nail. The sharp spike pierced his body and narrowly missed one of his kidneys.
In the earlier Christopher Walken movie, 'Scam' (1993) (TV), Jack Shanks (Christopher Walken) says in one of his schemes, that he is a mortician from Milwaukee. In 'Undertaking Betty'/'Plots with a View' (2002), funeral director Frank Featherbed (Christopher Walken) says he ''...specialised in accident victims back home in Milwaukee'' where he ''graduated from the Sheboygan School of Morticians.''
This is the second comedy starring Brenda Blethyn where she discovers that the man she was faithfully married to was a philanderer, the first being "Saving Grace."
Christopher Walken and Lee Evans had previously co-starred in "Mousehunt" (1997).
