Production
In the original script, the character of Dr Newman was written as Dr Nieuwenhoff. On the cast page, Tony Barwick appended a note running, "Please amend throughout script: Nieuwenhoff to Newman". The prop of a newspaper that first appeared in the Thunderbirds episode "Edge of Impact" is featured again in "Double Agent". Seen being read by Mac, the headline references the plot of the earlier episode: "Red Arrow Test Flight Cancelled". The establishing shot of the London airport is lifted from another Thunderbirds episode, "Trapped in the Sky", while shots used for the Paris airport originally appeared in Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons: the establishing shot derives from the episode "Treble Cross", the shot of the public address speaker from "Winged Assassin". The music heard on Courier A14's car radio at the start of the episode was recorded on 12 May 1968 at Barry Gray Studio from 7 pm to 11 pm.

Famous quotes containing the word production:
“The growing of food and the growing of children are both vital to the family’s survival.... Who would dare make the judgment that holding your youngest baby on your lap is less important than weeding a few more yards in the maize field? Yet this is the judgment our society makes constantly. Production of autos, canned soup, advertising copy is important. Housework—cleaning, feeding, and caring—is unimportant.”
—Debbie Taylor (20th century)
“The development of civilization and industry in general has always shown itself so active in the destruction of forests that everything that has been done for their conservation and production is completely insignificant in comparison.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“From the war of nature, from famine and death, the most exalted object which we are capable of conceiving, namely, the production of the higher animals, directly follows. There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved.”
—Charles Darwin (1809–1882)
