Factual error: When D'artagnan and the musketeers are infiltrating the Tower of London, the king's guards are seen with the Tudor Rose crest on their tunics. By the time stated at the beginning of the movie, the last Tudor monarch (Elizabeth I) had been dead for 80+ years.

More quotes from The Three Musketeers

Question: I haven't read the novel - is their servant British in the book (if his character appears in the book at all)? It seemed like an odd choice given that they are warring with England, but perhaps it was just a good accent for the comic relief?

Answer: The servant is definitely French in Alexander Dumas' novel.
