Trivia
ADD TRIVIA
- In this episode, it's clear Jamie, Alex and Sooz are friends. As are Nicki and Sasha. They all know each other, but the six, including Rob are not a 'group of friends'. In following episodes, they become proper friends. Edit
- The friends are seen drinking in a nightclub, but Sooz, Alex, Nicki and Jamie are all 17. It's illegal to drink or be in a nightclub, until you are 18. Edit
- Alex mentions that Jamie has a sister, Emily, who's 14. But she is never seen or mentioned at all for the rest of the entire show. Edit

Quotes
ADD QUOTES
- Jamie: Cheers for the advice, Sooz. It means a lot coming from someone who's gone out with, let me see, how many people? Oh, that'd be none! Unless you count Tig Fieldmen feeling you up when he was off his box that night! Edit
- Sooz: Earth to Jamie... It's life - not porn! Remember? Edit
- Sooz: (about Nicki) Great hair, and I suppose the boobs go without saying. But let's face it Jamie, I've given jumpers to Oxfam with better personalities. Edit
Allusions
ADD ALLUSIONS
- At one point Sooz criticizes a girl saying "I've given jumpers to Oxfam with more personality" Oxfam is an international charitable relief agency Giving clothing to Oxfam in the UK is the equivalent of giving clothing to the Goodwill in the US.
  BTW In the US jumpers are called sweaters. Edit
- Jamie introduces himself stealing directly from James Bond... The names Collier... Jamie Collier Edit
