This episode was the tenth most-watched programme on BBC2 that week, with viewing figures of 3.15 million.
Kelly's Americanisms appear again in the episode, with the phrase "took a powder".
In Kelly parodies Nightclubs & the Movies (2020) Kelly shows a couple of clips from the episode and discusses them, revealing that it was really him singing in the movie spoof sequence, and that the actor who appeared upside down in a chair really didn't want to do it, and had to be persuaded.
