details

• The shampoo bottles Barry and Matt use to "help the ladies" are actually a real brand of shampoo and hair products by Umberto Giannini.
  
  
• Some of the items checked out by Sharon at the beginning of the film include Kellogg's Corn Flakes, a 2-liter bottle of Coca Cola, dish washing detergent, and a package of Cadbury Mini Rolls. The box of Ritz Crackers is not checked out and is instead used to block the clock from her field of view.
  
  
• The short film was filmed over four nights in Sainsbury's Whitechapel branch in London. The crew filmed while the store was closed from 10pm - 6am.
  
  

• There was no budget for wardrobe so the main cast borrowed uniforms from the store and shoppers wore their own clothes.
  
  
• There was no CGI used in the short and all the effects are in camera effects.
  
  
• The feature length version which includes the original short within its running time was already complete when it was announced that the short had been nominated for an Oscar.
  
  
• Jamie Bell was the directors first choice to play Ben, but he passed on the script.
