Justice - S4-E3

Continuity mistake: Near The End of the episode, after the simulant has strangled itself, it is lying flat on his back. When the Cat comes up behind it to attack it with a spade, the simulant is half sitting up. 26.20. (00:26:20)

Meltdown - S4-E6

Continuity mistake: When the battle ends, Kryten's chest monitor fits tightly into his chest plate. In the next scene the monitor has shrunk and there is a large gap between his chest and the screen. (00:23:40)

Dwarf

Camille - S4-E1

Continuity mistake: When Kryten falls over the balcony, the next shot shows him holding onto the ledge, yet in the following shot he is holding onto a pole about a foot away from the ledge. (00:08:00)

Dwarf

White Hole - S4-E4

Continuity mistake: When Kryten tells the toaster not to offer Lister any grilled bread products, Lister is looking down at the table behind him. In the next shot he is looking over his shoulder at the camera. (00:02:50)

Dwarf

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.

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.
