message: That photo of "Emma Thompson as Kate" has nothing to do with the film, and is not even Emma Thompson

message: The claim that Britishisms were overdubbed, etc. needs a source.  The specific example cited:
:in the scene featuring John Inman reading the nominees for the theatre awards, three American actors are named in addition to Ron Anderson, rather than the British actors named in the original.
is wrong, based on the dialogue from the 1999 Alliance Atlantis Canadian VHS release, which mentions Dudley Moore, Michael Caine, and Christopher Reeve as Ron Anderson's competitors. — 72.244.201.208 (talk) 22:16, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

message: Sure about the date? (Even though it has a print source.) I was living in London in late '87 and all through '88; I saw a small scene being filmed (working title on the clapperboard was Camden Town Boy), and I saw a theatre tricked out with Ron Anderson / Elephant! signage.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.144.174.248 (talk) 05:42, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

message: Rowan Atkinson's character is featured onstage performing a sketch based around social embarrassment, with a pretended blind man as his stooge. Isn't this an early version of the "At the Beach" segment from the initial episode of Mr. Bean? Nuttyskin (talk) 22:10, 16 April 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: This sketch originated in Atkinson’s own real-life stage show, where he played a prototype “Bean”-like character in several limited dialogue scenes, and also in the supposed function of a stage-hand, sweeping the stage. It might also be worth mentioning in the article that Angus Deayton - who appears as the man in the agent’s office - toured as the “‘other man’ in Atkinson’s (supposedly) ‘one man show’”, basically undertaking the function of Goldblum’s character in the film in relation to Anderson.
Deayton also performed in the spoof comedy pop act The Heebie-Geebies, with songs by Curtis and Phil Pope, who I suspect contributed the songs for “Elephant!” Can anyone confirm this? Pope doe appear in the soundtrack singing two covers of pop standards.Jock123 (talk) 12:04, 10 October 2018 (UTC)

message: Ron Anderson’s car is a blue Aston Martin, which was in real-life Atkinson’s own car. It is shown as having the vanity plate “COM 1 C”; this index number is in fact owned and used by veteran comedian Jimmy Tarbuck. Jock123 (talk) 12:07, 10 October 2018 (UTC)
