Trivia
Aldis Hodge does actually play the violin, though not at a professional level as required for the piece in this job. While he didn't play the piece live for filming, he did learn it, and worked with his violin teacher to perfect the timing and fingering to make it accurate for the show.

Goofs
Sophie, while interviewing for a job with Alexander Moto, refers to a quote from Stalin, but misquotes him by saying, "one death is a tragedy, 1000 deaths is a statistic". The actual quote is "if only one man dies of hunger, that is a tragedy. If millions die, that's only statistics"

Quotes
The Italian: Mr. Ford, in the service of good, sometimes we have to deal with bad people and do bad things.
Nathan Ford: Really? 'Cause I work with a bunch of bad guys who are more honorable than you will ever be. If we're gonna have this arrangement, never play me again.

To the person who said their intelligence was insulted...

The bow not touching was intentional lol. You're not supposed to know that he can play until the end, he's nervous and trying to fly under the radar. He's not playing for real because he doesn't want to mess up.
