Red Dwarf

Holoship - S5-E1

Continuity mistake: When Kryten walks past Rimmer at the start of the episode and says 'I'm on to it right away, Holly,' he manages to move from in front of Rimmer to halfway up the set of steps by the door in one camera cut. (00:02:10)

Dwarf

Holoship - S5-E1

Continuity mistake: After Rimmer and Nirvanah have sex, as they're getting out of bed, Nirvanah ties her robe twice. In the next shot as she's standing, the robe is open again. (00:14:00)

Holoship - S5-E1

Continuity mistake: When Rimmer loses his intelligence, he wipes his eyes with his right hand. In the next shot he has both hands on the keyboard and is looking over his left shoulder. (00:20:05)

Dwarf

Holoship - S5-E1

Continuity mistake: When Lister is explaining the ending of the movie, he says "It's about a dude who sacrifices his life for love" whilst Rimmer looks at him, but in the next shot, Rimmer is suddenly looking forwards before turning back to Lister saying "as if." (00:02:55)

Casual Person

Holoship - S5-E1

Continuity mistake: When Kryten tells Rimmer he doesn't have the brain that can accept an implant, he says "No" and begins walking around the table. Kryten has his hands raised with his right hand slightly lower than the left, but in the next shot, both hands are suddenly level with each other. (00:22:05)

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.
