Someone makes sure that the director leaves his mark on the episode...

Huxley snoops round the ground floor of The Grange

Where are we?: Suspicious that the Grange community might be shielding Laura and Norman, Huxley snoops round the ground floor while Abby is fetching him some freshly-baked bread.

What's the goof?: Perhaps more of a 'crew gag' than a 'goof' — as Glyn Owen passes through the doorway, a drawing (scrawled in the dust and dirt) is clearly visible on the pillar next to him. The 'TW' initials underneath in all likelihood refer to episode director 'Terence Williams'
