Brian Jackson: Got an announcement to make. I'm gonna be on University Challenge.
Julie Jackson: What a relief. I thought you were gonna say you were gay.
Brian Jackson: Ever since I can remember, I've wanted to be clever. Some people are born clever, same way some people are born beautiful. I'm not one of those people.
Factual error: "Venus" by Bananarama is playing when Brian gets home for Christmas. The song was released mid spring 1986, but the movie takes place in 1985.
Trivia: Catherine Tate plays James McAvoy's mother in the movie, even though in real life she's only 11 years older than him.
