  • Retroactive Recognition:
    • Spaulding is played by Ben Aris, who would later be best known for playing Julian Dalrymple-Sykes in Hi-de-Hi!.
    • Mackenzie McLeod from "The Summer Hunt Ball" is played by Paul Barber, who would later be best known for playing Denzil Tulser in Only Fools and Horses.
  • Values Resonance: In The '80s, Richard's plan to turn Grantleigh Estate into a commercial farm for his business is seen as forward-thinking and modern, while Audrey's attempts to prevent Grantleigh changing is framed as her being an old-fashioned traditionalist. Nowadays we know how ecologically destructive Richard's intensive factory farming practices are, so Audrey appears ahead of her time.
