To prove his power, he unleashes a blizzard on the building. Unfortunately, the Council room has giant windows, and when we look outside, we can clearly see that it is a sunny day with emerald green trees. 55552 The shot of Big Ben destroyed by lightning looks strangely like the Big Ben exploding in the film "Mars Attacks" (1996). 692 When Mrs. Peel is playing the piano and the camera angle moves to her face, the piano keys inside are not moving. Even if it is a player piano, the keys inside have to strike the strings to make a sound.
