Although set in Greece, the episode was shot in Malta, like episode 3.3, "Maltese Steele".
The original working title for this program was "Game, Set and Steele."
Given that Pierce Brosnan's character is supposed to be a major film buff, it is curious that he never notices that the deserted village in which he finds himself at the start of the episode is, in fact, a film set - the village constructed on the island of Malta for Robert Altman's 1980 film "Popeye". The set subsequently became a major tourist attraction on the island.
