The episode titles for the third series appeared for commercial purposes, eg. streaming. However, on original broadcast there were no episode titles in listing magazines, and the onscreen credit states only the episode number, eg. "episode one", "episode two", etc.
The third series of the programme was written by Bernadette Davis alone, unlike the two previous runs which had been co-written with Andrew Davies.
Mandy reveals that she is exactly £9342.71 in debt. This would be the equivalent of around £17,330 in 2023.
Game On co-deviser (and co-writer for the first two series) Andrew Davies had written the screenplay for a successful adaptation of Pride and Prejudice (1995) in 1995.
The adaptation had featured Crispin Bonham-Carter in a role, something which Bernadette Davis appears to lightly spoof during this episode in something of an in-joke: Mandy is writing a novel entitled "Promise and Promiscuity".
