Casual Person

Continuity mistake: In the scene on the Canaries' transport, where they first try to convince Kryten to record the women showering, Kochanski speaks the first line in the scene, but when the shot changes to the wide shot, she isn't there anymore. (Confirmed on the DVD commentary). (00:05:55 - 00:07:20)

Continuity mistake: When the virus starts to eat the potatoes, Rimmer picks them up from the pile just below eye level.
