- TriviaReferences Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's original Sherlock Holmes story, "The Adventure of the Musgrave Ritual".
- GoofsThe land grant / crown grant that was given to the Musgraves by a King Henry, lists King Henry as being King of "Great Britain, France Scotland and Ireland." This is in error, since there have been only "8" King Henry's in England's history, the last being "Henry VIII" in the 16th century. England didn't become part of "Great Britain" until 1707, with the "Act of Union" passed under Queen Anne. This occurred 160 years after Henry VIII's death. There is also some doubt regarding the use of "France", since France oftentimes either wasn't a united country or existed side-by-side with England, thus making for confusion. The English king in question, would likely have referred not to "France" as part of his kingdom, but to which territories (such as Normandy) he controlled.
- Quotes
Dr. John H. Watson: Yes. We told you, you were taking an awful risk.
Sherlock Holmes: Well, we had to have a confession and these egomaniacs are always so much more chatty when they feel they have the upper hand.
- Crazy creditsMilburn Stone is said to have been 5' 8" and Hillary Brooke is said to have been 5' 6". There is definitely a discrepancy somewhere or is there? Stone is taller than Brooke.
