Facts about

Richard Greene was the only actor to reprise his role from the TV series. The other roles were played by an entirely new set of actors.
Oliver Reed's voice is not heard; he's dubbed throughout by another (anonymous) actor attempting to sound like Reed's normal voice. Reed's own voice is heard in the film's trailer, where he adopts a very camp lisping French accent.
