Behind the scenes
- With every episode's title card, one of the gang announces the guest star, which is Velma this time.
- This is a rare occasion where Scooby refers to Shaggy as "Shag."
- Fred says "Hold the phone" once.
- Shaggy says "Zoinks" once.
- Daphne claims to know over 76 different languages.
- Running gags include Shaggy and Scooby repeatedly getting caught in Crackpot Sherlock and Velma's experiments, and Crackpot Sherlock referring to Velma and Shaggy as Watson and Mrs. Hudson, respectively.
- Shaggy reveals a never before interest in Sherlock Holmes literature.
- The next episode is also in England.
- The opening of the theme song with what appears to be a castle, is actually lifted from the scene in this episode of the gang arriving outside the Tower of London. What has been altered for the theme song, though, is the appearance of bats flying out of the building and an empty Mystery Machine.
Errors
- In previous Scooby-Doo media (and in the wider Hanna-Barbera universe), Sherlock has always been real, whereas this episode explicitly states that he is a fictional character.
- Crackpot Sherlock wears protective goggles, while Velma, who's standing right beside him, doesn't. Possibly because she's already wearing glasses, although that's not quite the same.
- When Daphne translates for the security guard, she says "they" instead of "we".
- Whoever was fact-checking what toad in the hole is obviously didn't research hard enough.
Everlasting influence
- The bobby cop returns in "Ollie Ollie In-Come Free!" Whether or not these episodes are supposed to be back-to-back is unclear, as neither refer back to each other. He also has another cameo in "Dance Matron of Mayhem!"
