Trivia
Barnaby and Winter look at a map showing the location of the cancelled party. This was an Ordnance Survey 1:25000 map of Watlington, with its real name blanked out and "Causton" printed in its place.

Goofs
The story claims Alexander Beauvoisin was killed with a wooden bullet and the bullet left an exit wound. Wooden bullets are non-lethal usually used for crowd control. They could only be fatal at very short range and certainly would not be capable of exiting the body.

Quotes
DCI John Barnaby: [looking at Fleur's crime scene recreation of a little hanging doll in a doll house] I have increasing reservations about you.
Fleur Perkins: I'd listen to that instinct.

Crazy credits
During the opening title sequence, the camera tracks in and out of various rooms in a dolls' house. The text of the captions for episode title, producer and director changes in size and direction as the camera moves, so as to appear to be a fixed part of the scene.
