Notes & Trivia[]
- As was the practice of the time, this episode was wiped by the BBC and no copy of it is known to exist.
- Actor Ric Young is credited as Eric Young in this episode.
- Actress Valerie Gearon was born in Monmouthshire, Wales. Actor Leslie Sands died in Monmouthshire, Wales. Weird, huh?
- This episode plays with the notion of re-assembling sound and light in order to recreate images of crimes that take place in the past. A similar trope is used in the film Minority Report, which involves three psychics who can predict crimes before they take place.
