1* ActingForTwo: Bill's mother and aunt were both played by Creator/LizSmith. (They might have been identical twins.)
2* DiedDuringProduction: The show was CutShort after Creator/GaryOlsen (Ben) died from cancer in 2000.
3* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: Eureka Video stopped releasing the series on [=DVD=] after Series 3, citing poor sales. As such, fans had to either catch it on a TV channel or otherwise attempt to locate it on Website/YouTube. This has been thankfully rectified with the entirety of the show's release on the British version of [=BritBox=] in December 2021.
4* TheOtherDarrin:
5** Jenny was first played by Georgina Cates (at the time still using her real name, Clare Woodgate) and then by Clare Buckfield.
6** Declan was played by Mitchell Ray in his first appearance, and by Alex Kew when he became a regular character.
7* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The show was initially pitched to Central as a sitcom called ''Hell and High Water'' and was very different from the final product - Ben was absent from the pitch, with Bill being a widower, and she worked for her brother-in-law (intended to be played by Creator/FreddieJones) selling souvenirs at a seaside town. Rona however was already fully formed from the outset.
