Trivia
The Affair is presumed to be taking place in the Austrian Alps, however when you first see the domed building where THRUSH is holding the real Solo, it is actually the Griffith Park Observatory in Los Angeles California. A good portion of the show is filmed in Griffith Park (all the winding roads and cliffs).

Goofs
To fool the viewer into thinking the observatory is in Switzerland, the sign on the observatory is "Sternwarte". But Suisse is officially a multilingual country and signs there would not just be in German.

Quotes
Darius Two: [watching the THRUSH double who's replaced Napoleon as he kisses Serena] Perfect, perfect!
Serena: [after the kiss, disappointed] Not really.

Alternate versions
This episode was filmed in colour for the Overseas cinema market and was known as 'The Spy With My Face' With a running time of 1.23.09 (PAL DVD)
