Trivia
The ferry used for the exterior shots was the King Seaways operated by DFDS between Newcastle and Amsterdam but with different livery added in post production.

Goofs
Someone has already mentioned the three stripe/four stripe epaulettes worn by the First Officer. Three is correct. In some scenes both are 3 and others, both are 4. But in the final scene, he manages to wear 3 on his right shoulder and four on his left.

Quotes
Justin: The main pump room is flooded, but I can swim across it and get to the pumps. Once I'm there, I'll start them up, and we should be okay. It's a bit of distance, but I think I can make it.
Terry: Can I say I'm loving your use of the word "I". You've not said "we" once, and I'm very grateful for it.

Amazing All Star Comedy Murder Mystery.

I am absolutely shocked with the low rating of this film. It is an amazing film, and well written. It had lots of stars I knew (Sheila Reid, Tony Gardner and many more). I think the bad reviews are because people clearly don't know the definition of the word 'comedy', if you want a serious murder mystery, get over to NCIS or Criminal Minds and stop throwing all the good work from everyone involved in the making of this.
