Trivia[]

- This is the first episode to have someone else’s name (other than Pat’s) in the title.
Goofs[]
- Lauren is incorrectly depicted behind the counter of the station cafe instead of Sara, so an enormous continuity error occurs when we hear her toot the bus' horn, see her behind the counter in the cafe and then see her standing next to the bus in the next scene.
- Every time Pat consults his watch, it is not on his wrist. It was also stated that was going to pick up the children later, so her presence inside the cafe would make this statement nonsensical.
- The transitions are missing in the SDS ident between Pat driving over the level crossing and arriving in the station car park.
- If the signal is poor on Pat's phone, it surely will not be any better on the Sat Nav either.
- Pat cannot over take a comet.
- Lizzy, Lauren, Meera and Julian count down 60 seconds, but when they finish, it is 79 seconds later.
