The Man From U.N.C.L.E.

The Off Broadway Affair - S3-E10

Trivia: When Napoleon informs Mr. Waverly that Illya once played the French horn, and Illya corrects him that it was the English horn, Napoleon wonders what the difference is. There is actually quite a difference: the French horn is a member of the brass family, a relative of trumpets and trombones, and the English horn is a member of the woodwind family, a relative of oboes and clarinets.

The Hot Number Affair - S3-E25

Trivia: There are a pair of meta-references to Sonny and Cher's guest appearances in this episode. One of the Harrys at Agnes Sue mentions the pair a few moments before Cher makes her first appearance, and when they appear on screen together for the first time, the song playing under the scene is their #1 hit "I Got You Babe".

Mistakes

The Quadripartite Affair - S1-E3

Plot hole: Solo blows open the ceiling vent of Illya and Marion's cell, and she stands on Illya's shoulders until Solo can reach her and pull her out. This leaves Illya with nothing/no one to stand on, no way to reach the vent and no apparent way out of the cell. But he's out just the same in the next scene, with no explanation as to how.

Quotes

Napoleon Solo: My name is Napoleon Solo. I'm an enforcement agent in Section Two here. That's operations and enforcement.
Illya Kuryakin: I am Illya Kuryakin. I am also an enforcement agent. Like my friend Napoleon, I go and I do whatever I am told to by our chief.
Alexander Waverly: Hmm? Oh, yes. Alexander Waverly. Number One in Section One. In charge of this, our New York headquarters. It's from here that I send these young men on their various missions.

Questions

Answer: He must have ridden in an Eaton's store elevator while he was in Canada at some point. For some reason, this elevator reminds him of it. The show's original concept had Solo being a Canadian, so this may be a minor nod to that fact.
