Games That Lovers Play trivia

Having met on the set of Games That Lovers Play, Joanna Lumley and Jeremy Lloyd - later the co-creator of 'Allo 'Allo! - began a relationship and married.

This film marks the first substantial film or television role of Joanna Lumley's career, although in a 1990s interview she once described it as a "foul, unerotic film".

At the height of Lumley's television fame in the 1990s - thanks to the success of BBC sitcom Absolutely Fabulous - the News of the World ran a front-page 'exclusive' that bootleg copies of Games That Lovers Play were selling for up to £50 at car boot sales across the country.
