    • Trivia
      During one scene, Ann Bell's toga got caught on the base of a pillar briefly exposing her pubic hair. This is the first known instance of full-frontal nudity (or indeed any kind of nudity) on British TV. Ironically, this brief clip is the only surviving clip of this production having been saved by an industrious VT technician and included as part of the 1982 BBC Christmas Tape entitled "Flash Frames".
