The show's opening with Williams making an entrance hanging upside down on a bungee rope is identical to him doing the same on the cover of his newly released album Escapology. Williams entrance was accompanied by "Let Me Entertain You", a song he often uses as the first song.

As he often does, Williams dedicated his 12th song "No Regrets" to his former Take That bandmates Gary Barlow, Jason Orange, Mark Owen and Howard Donald.

The performance of "Back for Good" on the third night by Williams and Owen was not included in the main section of the DVD.
