Bernard Bresslaw provided the voice for the unknown prisoner asking for meat and gravy.
The bath set, prominently featuring a bust of John Gielgud, was originally created for Julius Caesar (1970), in which Gielgud played the title character.

"Lurcio: [after Cassandra's prophecy; to the camera] Oh, she's very embittered, you know. Very embittered. You've seen the ring she had on? Well, allegedly, that was given to her by her fiancé when she was eighteen, and he jilted her, and she hasn't had it off since! Poor dear!"
