* Props: For the post-bike race scene at the end of 'King of the Mountains', there was only a small amount of ice cream available, so for some shots balled-up white paper was put into Max and Miranda's cones instead. The bull in the chase scene in 'Death in the Morning' was an animatronic brought in from the Spanish mainland, as bullfighting had recently been banned in Mallorca and the only fighting bull left on the island had lost one of its horns; all shots of it are up close to hide this.
