Episode Observations<\/h2>\n
\n
    \n
  • In Strangers on the Shore, when Boycie comes to the flat, he claims that all he has is the clothes he’s wearing. But at the market later, Raquel tells Del that she is sick of Boycie putting on the hair gel that smells of onion (because of Del). How could he use the hair gel if it was still in his house?<\/li>\n
  • In Strangers on the Shore, If you notice, the pygamas that Gary wears are the same ones that Del wore in the 1989 episode Sickness And Wealth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
