- Dawson Casting: It's not uncommon that the child actors are a few years older than their characters are. However, it's also averted as some characters like Liam and Frank are the same ages as their actors.
- The Other Darrin: Millie Redfearn replaced Claudia Colling in the role of Rosie Kettle, after the latter couldn't make the filming.
- Real Life Writes the Plot: The reason for the show's cancellation was due to Dani Harmer wanting to move on from playing Tracy Beaker. This led to The Dumping Ground being created in its place.
- What Could Have Been: Kia Pegg originally auditioned for Kitty before later getting the role of Jody.
- Word of Gay: Subverted. Word of God revealed that Elektra is a lesbian after she had left the show, however, this is explored in the web series spin-off After The DG with her meeting and expressing her feelings for a girl. Plus, Elektra had a rainbow flag in her room, which hinted at her sexuality. Word of God has also stated that Elektra was heavily hinted to be gay but they didn't do an episode on it at the time due to CBBC having stricter guidelines so they used subtle hints towards it (such as her pride flag in Series 3).
