* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: Due to [[ScrewedByTheLawyers copyright issues]], every home video release post-1999 has replaced several licensed music cues (including "Happy Birthday to You" and "How Much is That Doggy in the Window") with public domain music cues. If you want the original music, you're gonna have to track down the first DVD release from 1999 (aka, ''"The First Three Adventures"'') or early VHS tapes of the short.

** The decision to have Feathers constantly blaring organ music from his room came from putting on records of generic organ music during dailies so as not to make the music-less footage appear boring.

* OrphanedReferance: Feathers [=McGraw=] is a holdover from [[WhatCouldHaveBeen the original idea for the story]], where a huge flock of penguins came to live with Wallace and Gromit during an especially cold winter in England. In the final film, he's a penguin because [[RuleOfFunny it's funny]].

** In Feathers McGrew's first scene, he was meant to slowly turn around and face Gromit. The model however was so small this was impossible, so a sharp and sudden turn was used and was deemed more effective.
