- TriviaJust a bit of a chuckle observation here. When the two cops find Brian Lane still knocked out after having his coat and pants and shoes stolen, the young cop insists that Brian stands up. After all the effort to get Brian to stand up, the young cop tasered Brian so he fell down again. Counterproductive.
- GoofsJack Halford tells Charles Allenford that Allanford's father had been fighting in Korea with the Gloucestershire Regiment continuously for eighteen months prior to his death in action on 23 April 1951; i.e. from October 1949. The war did not begin until June 1950 and the Gloucestershire Regiment did not arrive in Korea until 3 November 1950.

Featured review
As much sense as a frog in a drinks cabinet.
The case of a tramp's death is reopened, at the time nobody took it too seriously, Sandra and the team are determined to learn the truth.
I am a fan of this episode, I think it's a cracker, it's wonderfully well written, beautifully acted, and it is just so original, the story is so imaginative, I can't think of any production with a similar sort of story. Great story for both Brian and Jack, both with a very important story.
Poor Brian, he should have reported those Officers for brutality, it wasn't his fault what happened, a few well known actors playing those old rogues. His coat is iconic.
Awesome names here including Tony no Ticket, Bedknob and Broadmoor Bill.
Rightly so there is a lot of love for the awesome Peter Davison, and his glorious voice, and he is brilliant, equal adoration should also be given to Sylvestra le Touzel, who is awesome, so beautifully spoken, it's hard not to think of her as The Heineken girl.......the water in Majorca.
Loved it, 9/10.
