== Bloopers and continuity errors ==
* When Edward is talking to Angelique about Barnabas and Angelique denies Edward's accusation that she knew what Barnabas was all along, Louis Edmonds seems to forget a line. He says, "Well," then hesitates and looks presumably to the teleprompter, and after a pause continues, "and I believe you know where he is now."
* When Victor Fenn-Gibbon is introduced to Angelique and they start to speak the shadow of a boom microphone can be seen on the head and forehead of Louis Edmonds.
