Trivia

  • First appearance of Andree Melly
  • In the Chunnel sketch, Bob Todd pours medicine into a spoon, drinks from the bottle then pours the spoon portion back into the bottle. Little Rascal George "Spanky" McFarland also did this bit in the "Our Gang" short, "Hook And Ladder."
  • Benny does a parody of the American drama TV series, "Ironsides."
  • Last on-screen appearance of The Ladybirds; the show would instead start showcasing singers and bands until the first appearance of Love Machine, who then became the basis of the Hill's Angels.
