ā¢ Several of the names in the series are puns. Kieren's last name is Walker, which is a term sometimes used to refer to zombies. Amy's last name is Dyer, referencing her deceased state. The show is set in the fictional village of Roarton, which sounds like "rotten".
ā¢ In January 2015, BBC Three announced that In The Flesh would not be renewed for a series 3 due to cuts to its budget for its final year as a televised channel.
ā¢ Anyone who was a zombie during the 'rising' and got the medical treatments are diagnosed with PDS (Partially Deceased Syndrome).
