• Like most of the other "Up" documentaries, this is scheduled to be shown in movie theatres in the U.S.
• Final appearance of the series for two participants, Suzy and Lynn. Suzy had often expressed negative views towards the series and considered dropping out after the 49 Up entry, and declined to participate in this edition. Lynn sadly died of cancer in 2013, after appearing in every entry of the series before her fatal illness (her family did appear in 63 Up to pay tribute to her and talk about what the series had meant to her and them).
