    • Trivia
      The title "Barnet" has a double meaning: the lead character, named Maurice Barnet, is a hairdresser; "Barnet" is Cockney Rhyming slang for the word "hair". "Barnet" = "Barnet Fair" = "hair". (Barnet Fair is an annual fair in Barnet on the Great North Road just outside London, which goes back to medieval times.)
