Red Dwarf

Demons & Angels - S5-E5

Continuity mistake: When Lister is sent flying when the crates explode, his hat falls off, but when he sits up he is still wearing it. It then falls off again when the low Lister spits at him, yet he is still wearing it when he rolls away. (00:13:50)

Dwarf

Demons & Angels - S5-E5

Continuity mistake: When remote controlled Lister is strangling the Cat, his locks are partially over his left shoulder and partially behind his back. When Lister picks up the bazookoid, his locks are all over his left shoulder. (00:23:10)

Dwarf

Demons & Angels - S5-E5

Continuity mistake: After the Cat incapacitates Lister, the Cat complains about his collar being untidy, then steps aside. The next shot shows Lister stood on his own and the Cat is not visible at all. There was no time for the Cat to walk that fast between shots. (00:23:20)

Dwarf

Back To Reality - S5-E6

Continuity mistake: When the Cat is holding up the haddock, going through the people who have commited suicide, the shot changes and the haddock disappeares from his hand. Also after the shot changes, the Cat is then pointing at Kryten and smiling. (00:03:25)

Dwarf

Psirens - S6-E1

Continuity mistake: When Lister is watching the video message of a psiren, posing as Kochanski, Lister asks "How? I don't understand" and Kochanski, on the video appears to move her face beginning to reply, but when the shot cuts back to the video, Kochanski's face is suddenly still. (00:16:20)

Casual Person

M-Corp - S12-E5

Other mistake: When Cat picks up the can of Leopard lager which is invisible to Lister, he shakes it, pops the cap and sprays Lister with foam. The foam is visible but the can remains invisible, and that makes no sense. If we are seeing the scene from Cat's point of view the can and foam should both be visible, and if it is from Lister's then neither should be.

More trivia for Red Dwarf

Answer: Presumably he does, but it's never been used in any material related to the show. He is the only Cat left (as shown in Series 1), so even if he had once had a name, nobody would know it.

Moose

Answer: In the book, the Cat finds the concept of a name confusing, as he's convinced he's the center of the universe and the idea that someone wouldn't know who he was is baffling.
