What's left behind the scenes
- The film was shot in a pavilion at the Islington studio, approximately 30 meters long.
- Hitchcock's cameo is a man at the end of the film, dressed in a black coat and smoking a cigar at Victoria Station.
- The non-existent country that the main characters travel through by train is named by Miss Froy at the beginning of the film; she says, "Bandrika is one of the few unexplored corners of Europe." Throughout the film, three stations can also be identified: Zolnay, Dravka, and Morsken.
- Gilbert says that he once drove a miniature model of a steam locomotive on the Dymchurch line. Romney, Hythe, and Dymchurch railways actually exist. They are miniature versions of railways (approximately 1/3 the normal size) and are located in southeastern England. Steam locomotives are still used on these railways, making journeys of 13 miles.
- After filming, Norton Wayne and Basil Radford often appeared together and also hosted their own radio program.
- Since the action takes place in the fictional Bandrika, Boris, the hotel administrator, speaks with a non-existent Bandrikan accent. This does not prevent him from uttering the common Jewish expression "Oy vey is mir" ("Oh woe is me!") in one of the dialogues.
- Initially, in 1936, the film was directed by Roy William Neal, who shot scenes in Yugoslavia. The first footage depicted marching soldiers advancing on a flock of geese struggling in the water. Yugoslav authorities considered this an insult to the honor of the national army, confiscated the script, and expelled the film crew from the country. After this, production of the film was halted for 2 years. Alfred Hitchcock then continued it.
