    • Goofs
      During the final sketch with Lex as a drunken character in a top hat, the boom mike briefly drops into shot when he raises his glass to say "cheers" to the barmaids.

      When he then sits down to speak to barmaid Kay (June Andrews), the boom mike falls into shot a further three times.
    • Crazy credits
      The credit for "make up" is spelt without a hyphen on this first episode; in all other episodes it's spelt as "make-up".
