The streaming-service version of "The Queen's Speech" cuts out a sequence that featured playing a (plot-relevant!) 12-inch remix of Music/{{Wham}}'s "Club Tropicana", presumably because the music rights were not available.

* ActorAllusion:
** Jack Halford is played by James Bolam, who played Jack ''Ford'' in ''Series/WhenTheBoatComesIn''.
** There have been a few ''Franchise/StarWars'' references since Denis Lawson joined the cast.



* IWantYouToMeetAnOldFriendOfMine: George Cole, Dennis Waterman's co-star in ''Series/{{Minder}}'', guest-starred in an episode. Sadly, John Thaw died before the series was made, thus denying us the chance of seeing [[Series/TheSweeney Regan and Carter]] reunited.
