- TriviaReactions to the return of Philip Glenister as Gene Hunt from Life on Mars (2006) were overwhelmingly positive. His characteristic bluntness drew much attention. In an interview with The National Student, Glenister himself chose, "Today, my friend, your diary entry will read: took a prozzie hostage and was shot by three armed bastards" as a personal favourite quote from this episode, and commentators also cited it.
- GoofsThe Audi Quattro used by Gene Hunt was not available for sale in the UK in 1981. He would have had to order it from continental Europe, thus it would probably be left-hand drive. This is acknowledged to in the extras, which speculate that Hunt could have gotten the car as "a dodgy import."

Featured review
I have been having a marathon of great British dramas as of late.
I find this series, in some cases, better than Life on Mars. I do believe a lot of it is likely biased, considering I'm an 80s girl, and love the music of the era, but the story and characters are still strong!
Some of Gene Hunt's one liners goes over my head. Likely due to the fact I'm not British.
Still... Give it a go!
