- AnecdotesThe TV monitor built into the 'comlock' unit each Alphan carried wasn't a clever special effect but a real miniature tv set available in the early 1970s (Panasonic TR-001) that had a 1.5 inch black and white screen. The props department cannibalised the model and rehoused it into a more appropriately futuristic casing. When we see the screen in use it is always held from a particular angle to hide the power and live video feed cables running into it. The numeric buttons on the side probably came off an early electronic calculator such as a Craig .
- GaffesWhenever anyone uses a commlock, a communications column in a hallway, or a comm terminal in a room they never set a channel for the call they make; they simply activate the device and it automatically connects to whomever the caller is looking to speak to.

Prof. Victor Bergman: [last message before evacuating Alpha] We are Mankind. We came from planet Earth, and we built this base, called Alpha, to learn more about space. But human error blasted this Moon out of the Earth's orbit. And so, we have traveled the Universe searching for a place to live. Now, we can no longer live here, and we go to face an uncertain future on the planet that has nearly destroyed us. You, whoever you are, who find this empty vessel of Alpha, come and seek us out, if we still exist. Come and teach us all you know. Because, we have learned many things, but most of all, we have learned we still have much to learn.
- Crédits fousDuring the first season, excerpts for each week's episode were incorporated into the opening credits, more specifically the "This Episode" section, which was something of a Gerry Anderson trademark.
