Continuity mistake: When Kurt and Kavi are washing clothes, the clothes change position on the line, specifically the red shirt at the end and the shorts Kavi hangs up. The red shirt is twisted around the line, but in the shot of Kavi hanging the shorts, the shirt is hanging perfectly straight down.

The IT Crowd (2006)

Calamity Jen - S1-E2

Question: In this episode, there's a commercial about "999" being changed to a ridiculous long number. While I get why it would be funny, was there some basis for joke itself? Like, was there talk about the UK changing the emergency number or something? Or is it just completely random. And when Roy says "how hard is it to remember 911, I mean 999", is this just a joke for American viewers to understand what 999 is? Or do British people say or use "911" too?

Bishop73

Answer: It's a joke on the "118" numbers in the UK. 118 numbers were used for directory enquiries and adverts for them on TV always tried to give a way to easily remember one for a particular company. The fake ad in the show takes it to the extreme. People in the UK do not use "911", the point of the joke was that Roy had forgotten "999" while saying it was easy to remember.

Continuity mistake: When Chet is pulling on the rope (thinking he's pulling up his nieces), the rope is over his left shoulder in long shots and his right in close up shots.

Continuity mistake: When Cara and Mara are at the cave and arguing about who gets to go first, the one without the flashlight goes in first, but when they're sliding down the cave, the one with the flashlight is first.

Continuity mistake: When the bear is pawing at the windshield the first time, he's using his left paw, but in the next shot, it's the right paw.

Trivia: In the newspaper, it says the Cubs sweep in 5. This means the World Series in the future now plays best of 9 instead of 7.

Bloodsport (1988)

Other mistake: When Ray and Frank are playing "Karate Champ", they're suppose to be playing against each other. But the screen shows the game is set for 1-player mode, otherwise it would have both "1 up" and "2 up."

Suggested correction: Automatic refilling seems to be the least of the miracles the Grail has performed.

LorgSkyegon

There was no evidence of this, plus we never see it refill before or after. How would it be empty when they first find it if it miraculously refilled itself? This is a poor correction just to make a correction.

Continuity mistake: When Indy shoots the 3 Nazis while rescuing his dad, one of them falls and breaks a bench and lands on his right side. When they leave the room, the bench is intact and he's on his left side.

Factual error: On the USA Today page from 1988, where it called Randy a loser, on the top left corner is USA Today's website.
