Season 2 Trivia

  • Episode 01 - The last episode from the previous season ended on 1909. This episode was undated because the producers wanted to move the time frame backward in order to accommodate an episode featuring King Edward VII (1841-1910) later in the second season.
  • Episode 09 - Goof (revealing mistake): The furniture and fittings destroyed in the fight scene are revealingly flimsy. The chair Donaldson falls onto seems to have no fastenings at the joints at all and collapses at first impact.
  • Episode 10 - Goof (revealing mistake): The prison wall shakes when Rose is thrown against it, revealing it to be a set.
  • Episode 02 - According to Simon Williams, the sets weren't left standing but were broken down and stored after every show. Sometime after this episode the portrait that hangs in the morning room disappeared and could not be relocated.
  • Episode 08 - Goof (revealing mistake): During a medium shot in the baptism scene. the baby is turned toward the camera enough to reveal it's a prop, not a real baby.
