Roger Daltrey takes part in four of the twelve sketches in this episode, along with two of the stage-set skits, and also performs his song "The Pride You Hide".
One of the sketches is an affectionate tribute to the US sitcom Taxi (1978). Although the series had ended for over two-and-a-half years in the United States, it was still being shown on the BBC, with the last episode broadcast on BBC1, a screening of Get Me Through the Holidays (1982), airing in December 1985, just a little over three months before the broadcast of the show.
However, with Taxi often shown in a late night, post-10pm slot, it's unclear how many Little and Large viewers would have been familiar with the sitcom.

As with the first four weeks of series six, Little and Large was once more screened directly opposite The Price Is Right (1984) on ITV.
Syd and Eddie's ratings plummeted to 8.05m and 51st place on the charts, though the ratings for Episode dated 5 April 1986 (1986) were also lower than usual, at just 11.16 million, suggesting the warmer weather was a contributing factor in the decline.
