What's left behind the scenes
- Four sets of dentures were made for Joey King (who played Gypsy Rose) for the filming.
- During filming, Callum Worthy set a photo of the real Nick Gougeon, whom he played in the script, as his phone wallpaper.
- Some events in the miniseries are fictional or embellished, while others are an accurate and detailed reflection of what happened—down to the smallest detail. Examples include the video Gypsy Rose filmed in the hotel on the night of the murder (when Nick is eating chocolate cookies) and the interrogations (this scene was based on CCTV footage).
