Factual error: When Bachu talks to Pavel during their lunch, two bottles of vodka are visible. Top of the bottle should read: RUSSKAYA, however, it's misspelled and reads "RUSSKAVA." Other issue with those bottles - in the center it should read in Russian "Русская Водка", however, although "Водка" spelled correctly, the "Русская" is misspelled and ends on "ерская", which is incorrect.

Trivia: The musical score was based on ambient audio samples taken from a decommissioned Lithuanian power plant where the series was filmed.
