Jon Hamm: I've worn everything on this show, from nothing to a rug wrapped around me to a beautiful bespoke suit.

Kate Carin (Costume Designer): When we see him at the bookshop for the ball, we thought it would be hilarious that Aziraphale had asked him to get really dressed up for it. So we did a bit of a homage to Liberace. So he's got a powder blue dinner suit that's encrusted with rhinestones. And then Douglas asked if we could do some sort of coat to go on top of it for one of the scenes when he leaves. So, of course, we didn't do just a coat. We did a huge ostrich feather coat, which we made from scratch.The girls did all the ombre on the feathers so it matches the dinner suit, gets lighter and lighter blue as it comes to the top, and then he's kind of surrounded by this halo of white feathers.

Sarah-Kate Fenelon (Producer): There is a shot when he emerges from the bookshop to meet all of the demons and say, like, I am who you're looking for, where he looks a little bit like an angel. And the silhouette of him kind of emerging in the light is very epic and is then just completely undercut by sort of, move out of the way. (video)

Dave Thomas recalls:

"There was a biopic of Liberace being made about a decade after SCTV. I got a call from someone who worked for him.

"He was livid, saying, 'Who the hell do you think you are, doing that tasteless impersonation of Lee? We want a retraction—and take it off the air immediately!' I said to him, 'I can’t do a retraction because it’s been on air in syndication for years. So you’re a little late.'

"How did he even see this? Turns out my agent had sent him the tape, submitting me for the role. They thought this was a genuine audition piece! I called my agent up and said, 'Are you out of your mind?!'
