    • Trivia
      The last appearance of Lee Ross as Kenny Phillips. His character leaves for Australia off-screen after this episode as Lee was expecting a film role that would have clashed with Series 4 filming dates.(Series 3 & 4 were filmed back to back) He was due to return for Series 5 but was busy by then too.
