'Pickle' is a web series expansion of an unpublished one-man play by the show's creator, Shaun Nolan.
Pickle's best friend at University is called Kaitlyn, the name that Pickle creator Shaun Nolan's parents would've called him had he been born a girl.
Pickle's mum Angela is named after creator Shaun Nolan's best friend's mum Angela, whose house was used as Pickle and Angela's house in the first season.
In "Landslide", Pickle actor Shaun Nolan plays a homeless man who gives the main character some advice. Originally, another actor was going to play the role, but due to scheduling issues, he never showed. Instead of cutting the scene, Shaun decided to play both parts himself.
The set for the University is made up of three entirely different buildings. The rooms used to house auditionees in "One Day I'll Fly Away" is a business centre, the office and entrance used in "The Bitch is Back" is a community centre, and the rest of the locations are inside the Aylesbury Waterside Theatre.
