The smashed chandelier was made by props company Trading Post.

Despite being a fake, it was still worth about £6,000 and only one was made, meaning the scene could only be filmed once.

It was initially intended that this would be the final scene in the episode, so after the incident Jason and Lyndhurst were required to stand and stare at each other in silence for 30 seconds while the camera rolled.

Nicholas Lyndhurst later recalled that Butt threatened him with the sack if he ruined the scene by laughing.

Many of the cast and crew struggled to contain their laughter in the aftermath of the shot; Butt himself stuffed a handkerchief into his mouth and left the room!
