The BBC trailer for their screening of the series features the song New Sensation by INXS.
Although the show and the band are Australian, the series is set in 1986 while the song wasn't released until 1988.
During the 1986 Brothers in Arms tour, Dire Straits' concert tickets were only $23, not $27. Coincidentally, tickets for Springsteen's Born in the USA tour a year earlier were $27.
