Odelle says she likes Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Anna Friel's husband, David Thewlis, stars in the film version of that book.
Colonel Glen mentions in a phone conversation with Odelle (while she is in the CIA safe house in Bamako) that he was in the waiting room with her father when she was born on July 12, 1976. This is Anna Friel's (Odelle) real date of birth.
