Episode Notes |
| |
Apparently the back room has been a nuclear shelter, Patsy's room, a canned storage room and now a panic room.
| Several members of the AbFab staff begged Minnie Driver to appear on the show in both the 3rd and 4th seasons but her schedule never agreed with the show. They finally got her to agree after an opening popped open while filming Will & Grace.
| The keypad in the panic room shows the floorplans for the main floor and the upstairs but oddly enough shows nothing for the basement.
| The air date for this episode refers to the BBC THREE showing. The episode was broadcast on BBC One the following Friday.

Episode Quotes |
| |
Saffy: Mom you're just playing into the whole "panic culture." I hate it! The world is actually safer than it's ever been, in fact you're more likely to be hit by a bus.
Eddy: Oh yeah dear, that'd be ironic wouldn't it. Closest I've ever come to public transport and it runs over me.
Saffy: Even then there's no guarentee the bus wouldn't come off worse.
| Minnie: Hello, Heat Magazine? Yeah, I got some pictures of Minnie Driver shopping. Yeah, she makes a rough of it.

Episode Goofs |
| |
During the end credits we see a short montage of Minnie Driver stealing the clothes from the sitting room and running out of the house. Notice this montage uses the same green filter used for the security camera shots for the panic room, obviously meaning all this action is being caught on the security cameras. So why didn't Patsy and Edina see the sitting room camera on the monitors in the panic room? Also why would someone put a security camera under the kitchen sink?
| The scar on Sarah's neck from when Eddie burned her with the candle is now gone. From the look of it, it shouldn't have healed and turned to normal.
| Eddie is talking to Saffy when Bubble climbs into the window. Based on her position on the couch, doesn't it seem reasonable that she would have seen Bubble coming in?

Eddy: This is Big Mother talking.
The show itself was meant to be a big kick in the behind to most reality television shows, all topped off with this funny reference to Big Brother.
| Panic Room
The episode makes several funny reference to the 2002 film Panic Room.
