Curiosidades
After producers had difficulty finding a red haired child actor with the charisma they needed to play Ginger Meggs, they recast Paul Daniel (originally cast as Coogan's lackey, Sammy) and dyed his hair red for the part.

Pifias
When Ginger is on the bicycle, chasing Min and the runaway horse, Ginger passes the same garage twice in two different shots.

Créditos adicionales
The credits are displayed over a town picnic attended by the cast. The camera pulls up and away during this scene to reveal the words "THE END" written on the picnic tables.

Versiones alternativas
The song played during the closing credits contains a line, "I'd like to get some separation on this desperate situation, like to knock him out of his trance." The movie's official soundtrack version ends the same line with, "knock the bastard out of his trance." As this was deemed an unsuitable lyric for a children's movie, producers requested a line change be made to the film version during post-production. However, it was too late to correct the album, which had already gone to print.

I remember this one too..

It's good to see that someone else saw this movie as well, because I remember as a kid watching it, and again when I was about 14, for old time's sake...I remember thinking 'oh my gosh, the acting is SOOOOOO bad!'

But the happy ending was what sucked me into watching the movie again and again as a child. I used to have such a crush on the kid who played Eddie Coogan, but was shocked to see that he was sadly hit by a train not too long after Ginger Meggs was made.

I can still vaguely remember the song that plays at the beginning and end of the movie, it went something like, 'Ginger Ginger Meggs...hey there Ginger!'

I remember the tune, just not the lyrics...but would love to hire it out again one day, just for a laugh, although I'm not sure whether it is still available. Definitely a movie to watch when you're not sober, makes it all the more funnier :-)
