Quotes
Joe:
Your mum's a barrel of laughs compared to my dad.
Goofs
When Mrs. Bhamra grabs the remote to shut off the television, her head scarf flips a couple of times around her arm. In a following shot, it isn't around her arm at all.
Crazy Credits
The closing credits feature cast and crew singing "Hot Hot Hot", with many of the lyrics in Punjabi. One group can be seen holding a "cheat sheet" index card, presumably with the lyrics on.
Alternate Versions
The word football was been replaced by soccer in many US prints.
