    • TRIVIA (3)

      ADD TRIVIA
      • Richie mentions that the flat belongs to his Aunt, but in later episodes, it is said to belong to Mr. Harrison.

      • If Eddie never really put the bet on he shouldn't have lost his temper and destroyed the telly when Miss China didn't win.

      • When the electricity in the flat goes out because of the TV, we see Eddie open the fridge while looking for the fuse wire. The fridge light is clearly on, but if the electricity was off, there would be nothing to power the light.

      • Richie: Do you know how many birds there are in the world? Eddie: Yeah, about three billion. Richie: Do you know how many of them I've slept with? Eddie: Yep. Richie: None. Eddie: Yeah, I know. Richie: I mean, statistically, that's really quite phenomenal, isn't it? Eddie: Not for an ugly fat bastard like you. Richie: I wonder what sort of great bird'd suit me? Eddie: Blind one. Well, blind, deaf masochist, really.

      • Eddie: Richie, I'm warning you. If you don't shut up and let me watch "Miss World", I'm going to stuff your head up your bum. And you'll spend the rest of your life wandering around on all fours looking for the light switch.

      • Richie: (Describing programme on the television) It's a documentary about fat, old women.
        Eddie: What, are you on it then?

      • Eddie: What's this? Richie: Elm tea. The Gypsians swear by it. Eddie: I bet they do. I bet they go "What the bloody hell's this?"

    • NOTES (3)

      ADD NOTES
      • This is the first episode were only Richie and Eddie appear with no other characters.

      • The above fact is also backed up by the fact that this is one of the only episodes in which Richie says 'bottom' when referring to their situation in life.

      • This could possibly be the first Bottom episode ever created, due to the fact that Richie's hair is shorter and not gingerish coloured, Eddie loses his job, and the furniture arrangements in the flat are diferent.
