Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

Cancelled after one season despite winning Best Drama Series at SFX Awards; BBC never released a DVD, making it genuine lost media until fan uploads.

Cultural

Andrew Marshall also created 2point4 Children; this was his dark pivot, blending sitcom timing with genuine horror—practically unique in British TV.
