 A few weeks into filming, Jaye Davidson (qv) got ill from flu. A  doctor was called to the set to take a look at him. The doctor  entered Jayes tiny trailer, examined him and came out to talk to  director Neil Jordan (I) (qv). The doctor asked Neil "Have you  considered the possibility that she might be pregnant?". To which  Neil and the other crew began to laugh. The doctor looked bemused,  and was only let in on the secret a few minutes later. He felt very  foolish.
