 A body double was secretly used for the naked rear shots of Willow  dancing. The scenes were filmed after Britt Ekland (qv) had left  the set. The body double was used because Ekland would only agree to  topless shots of her body. After shooting was over, not only was  Ekland furious to learn she had been doubled in some shots but that  she was also a few weeks pregnant in that scene. Director  Robin Hardy (I) (qv) says it was Ekland herself who did not want  her bottom to be filmed, as she did not like it.
