- Retroactive Recognition:
- Simon seem oddly familiar? For older folks, David McCallum is better known as Illya Kuryakin. Younger generations see him as Ducky.
- And fellow POW Phil Carrington is known to older viewers as Alexander Mundy in another 60s spy-fi series, while younger viewers know him as Tony DiNozzo's father.
- Pat Grant is played by Edward Hardwicke, best recognised as the second Dr. Watson in Granada's Sherlock Holmes series.
- Michael Wisher plays a consulate official in the Season 1 episode "Lord, Didn't It Rain". Nowdays, he is remembered for playing the original Davros in Doctor Who.
- Signature Scene: Or more like Signature Episode; pretty much everyone who's seen the show remembers "Tweedledum", where one of the prisoners comes up with the idea of pretending to be mad in order to be repatriated. And especially the tearjerking final scene...
