Payback - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: Whilst Neuman is having lunch with Hughie, when she asks "How'd surveillance go with Termite last night", she has her fork placed in the salad bowl. When the shot cuts to focus on Hughie, the fork is now in her mouth and then she lowers it back into the salad bowl. (00:17:48)

Trivia: Simon Pegg's extended cameo as Hughie's father is a specific nod to the comics - the look of "Wee Hughie" in the original comics was based on Simon Pegg. Artist Darick Robertson said "it was important to capture an innocence but tough determination in Hughie. Two things that seemed to contradict each other and somehow in early sketches he kept looking too old. When I saw Simon Pegg in Spaced I thought he captured that balance perfectly." Pegg knew he was too old to play the character himself, but was happy to play his father.
