Red Dwarf (1988)

Season 2 generally

Continuity mistake: Lister and Rimmer's bunk room looks exactly the same in the flashback scenes during this series as it does in the present time. In the first series it looked completely different, so surely the look should have changed slightly for the flashback scenes?

Season 2 generally

Other mistake: The shots of Blue Midget driving back to Red Dwarf that are shown from behind are visibly the exact same shots used each time. This is evident as the driving movements of Blue Midget, its position in the frame, and Red Dwarf's position in the background are all identical each time.

Casual Person

Kryten - S2-E1

Deliberate mistake: In the episode of 'Androids' which Kryten is watching, a microphone is seen, then quickly pulled out of shot. (00:02:05)

Dwarf

Kryten - S2-E1

Visible crew/equipment: When the crew are in their sleeping quarters, and Rimmer is talking to the others, a blue boom mic can be seen hovering over his head (you can see this if you watch the dvd on your pc, as some tv's can cut off the edge of the picture) (00:03:10)

Kryten - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When Holly interrupts Rimmer learning Esperanto saying "The menu looks interesting", he appears on the TV screen, with his chin blocked by the edge of the frame. The shot then cuts to a view of the screen, and his entire face is suddenly fully in the frame. (00:05:00)

Casual Person

Kryten - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When Kryten shows the crew information of the survivors on board the Nova 5, Tracey Johns is listed as the shortest. In the group photo she is the tallest of the three. (00:09:00)
