The English estate featured in the episode is Hatley Castle in British Columbia, Canada. This estate is also used as the setting for Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters in the X-Men series films, as well as various other films and television shows.
A character delivers a meager meal and mockingly calls it a "traditional English breakfast". A typical traditional English "full breakfast" includes bacon, eggs, fried or grilled tomatoes, fried mushrooms, fried bread or buttered toast, sausages, and coffee or tea. Other items (such as baked beans) are sometimes added or substituted. These meals generally run about 800-1000 calories.
