Corrected entry: In the 'buying a bed' sketch, Mr Verity says that the couple "said mattress twice". Because of his affliction he should have said "20 times".

Corrected entry: In the 'New Cooker Sketch' Mrs. Pinnet says she lives at 46 Algernon Road. When we switch to the exterior shot, the number on the door is 94 and it it is opened on the other side.
Correction: Mrs Pinnet is a pepper pot - she has the brains of a cheese sandwich. It's surprising she got any of her address right.

Corrected entry: In the opening scene, when Graham Chapman sits on a pig, the shadow of the microphone is visible on the wall behind him.
Correction: The scene is set in a television studio and he is speaking directly to camera. A boom shadow is not a film mistake under these circumstances.

Corrected entry: When commentating on the artists' bicycle race, John Cleese says some more cyclists are approaching and rattles off a very long list of names ... but then only 3 cyclists pass.
Correction: This is an example of pythonesque humour (pythonesque IS a word, look it up in the dictionary). Don't you think it a bit funny that he rattle off lots of names and have three riders go by? Maybe it's just me.

The Spanish Inquisition - S2-E2
Corrected entry: During the closing credits while The Spanish Inquisition are going to the Old Bailey, Terry Gilliam is holding a large book. When they burst into the court, he is not.
Correction: Since they are hurrying to the court before the credits end he could have forgotten it on the bus.

Corrected entry: In the 'Marriage Counsellor' sketch, the word on door to the office is spelt incorrectly ('councellor').
Correction: This is the British way of spelling it. The spelling is correct.

Corrected entry: At the beginning of the 'Marriage Counsellor' sketch, Eric Idle shows the cards 'Marriage' and 'Counsellor' and they fall off of the front of the table. Michael Palin and his wife walk in and the cards have vanished from the floor.
Correction: Actually, they fall onto the table itself. They are still there during the rest of the sketch.

Correction: No, he only has to multiply the numbers he says by ten. Twice is not a number.
