Trivia

  • Helen Baxendale was intended to have a much larger part in the season; however, she fell pregnant during the hiatus, and was therefore precluded from flying to the USA to film. Her part was greatly reduced, and for many of her subsequent appearances, she is either filmed above the waist, or is tucked up in bed.
