2 | ** Yes, Sir George Cayley and his attempts at heavier-than-air flight are real. |
3 | ** The scene where Dodger has his caricature drawn by John Tenniel for ''Magazine/{{Punch}}'' has a bit more resonance when you know that Tenniel probably also [[http://www.wopc.co.uk/games/jaques-happy-families.html drew the caricatures on Simplicity's Happy Families cards]].[[note]][[http://www.wopc.co.uk/games/quartet Alternate link]], just in case.[[/note]] |
4 | ** One subtler reference to ''Literature/OliverTwist''. ''Oliver Twist'' had a character rather controversially known as Master Bates. Onan the dog is named after the biblical figure who lends his name to onanism, a word meaning rather the same thing as "Master Bates". |
