Queeg - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: At The End of the chess game, the layout of the pieces shows the first three moves of the game. As the game obviously had more moves than this, the chess board graphic was wrong. (00:25:40)

Krytie TV - S8-E5

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)

Pete (2) - S8-E7

Continuity mistake: At the start of the scene where Rimmer and Lister get beaten up in the captain's office, as they walk down the corridor, Lister's locks are behind his back. As they turn the corner in the next shot his locks are in front of his right shoulder. (00:20:40)

Ouroboros - S7-E3

Continuity mistake: When Lister looks at the photo of the gelf, the shots from behind show one of his locks over his right shoulder. However, the view from in front of Lister shows the lock is gone. (00:14:40)

Timeslides - S3-E5

Audio problem: In the photo of 'Smeg and the Heads' you can see that the drummer frantically plays the cymbals, but no sound comes from them. (00:11:40)

Dwarf

Better Than Life - S2-E2

Revealing mistake: When Holly is talking about his chess game, you can see his black clothing to the left of his chest, revealing he's hiding a body, and isn't just a computer generated floating head. (00:06:30)

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.
