Trivia
- Despite airing in 2003, this episode was produced in 2002 according to the UK credits.
- This episode premiered in Australia a few days before it premiered in the UK.
- This episode marks the first appearance of Charlie the Chinchilla.
- If you look closely during the title card, Spud can be seen standing.
- When Lofty saw Charlie for the first time, he got scared and presumably was about to mistake him for a mouse but calmed down upon realizing he's a chinchilla.
- This episode was paired with Scruffty On Guard (Season 8) when it was shown in Canada and Latin America.
- This episode was later paired with the TV premieres of Hamish's New Home (Season 7) and Racing Muck (Season 8) when the series moved to PBS in the US in 2005.
- During the late 2000's, this episode was paired with Lofty's Long Load (Season 7) on Sprout on weekend airings only.
- When Roley says, "Cha-cha, you said.", what he means is it's not really a sneeze, it's actually a dance.
