When discussing the photos of Roy (wherein his ex-girlfriend has been photoshopped out) Moss quips 'It's like someone broke up with Stalin'. Under Josef Stalin's oppressive rule, it was alarmingly common for those who fell out of favor with the Communist regime would simply disappear, and all records of their existence would be doctored or erased. Most notably, these people were often edited out of photographs, leaving obvious gaps where a person once stood.
Dolly Wells, who plays Miranda the feminist, previously played Paula the model in The Dinner Party (2007).
Roy says getting over his girlfriend will be 'simples'. This is referring to Compare the Market's 'Compare the Meerkat' ads, which feature a Russian meerkat whose catchphrase was 'Simples!'
Roy's T-Shirt in this episode is a black r-Shirt with white font saying "NO."
