    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Homer says, "I would like to go back to Brazil but I hear the monkey problem has gotten even worse." This is a reference to complaints received from Brazilian tourist officials after the episode "Blame it on Lisa" (2002) was aired, citing that it made Brazil look crime-ridden and monkey-infested.
    • Goofs
      In this episode the Queen appears in court against Homer Simpson. In real life the reigning British Monarch is protected from prosecution and also cannot be called to give evidence in a case of criminal law.

    Weak
    Despite a good premise (The Simpsons go to London) this is a dud episode, and one that relies heavily on guest big name voices to get it through.

    Unfortunately it doesn't work, and this is the first dud episode of S15 in my book.
