It was recorded in Studio A at BBC Pebble Mill.

Lynda Kettle was the production designer, and designed this set.

Diana Lester was the costume designer and remembers:

“I was responsible for costume on that show…. zero budget to get anything for Mark Evans to wear, so begged samples from shirt and rugby shirt supplies for him to wear. I remember a small company called Quba sails gave me some good tops …. I think the entire show budget went on the revolving chicken’s heads.”
