During the pub quiz in The Golden Lion, several of the actual Fishermen's Friends can be seen in the opposing team.
The film is dedicated to Fisherman's Friends singer Trevor Grills and tour manager Paul McMullen who both died after being hit by a heavy metal door in February 2013 whilst preparing for a concert at music venue G live in Guildford, Surrey. A message before the end credits says 'For our friends Trevor and Paul.'
Alwyn's red Citroen 2CV is on Google Streetview in Port Isaac where the movie was filmed. It is parked outside the Angry Anchovy in New Rd.
The man who parks his car where the tide comes in is Nathan Outlaw, two-Michelin star chef, who has a restaurant in Port Isaac.
After the pub quiz, Danny asks Alwyn who the first artist was to have a posthumous no.1 single in the UK. He seems impressed when she answers "Otis Redding." The correct answer is Buddy Holly (1959). Otis Redding has never had a no.1 single in the UK.
