Red Dwarf

Psirens - S6-E1

Continuity mistake: When Lister is watching the video message of a psiren, posing as Kochanski, Lister asks "How? I don't understand" and Kochanski, on the video appears to move her face beginning to reply, but when the shot cuts back to the video, Kochanski's face is suddenly still. (00:16:20)

Casual Person

Legion - S6-E2

Continuity mistake: When Rimmer suggests bringing Legion with him, Lister says he's not going to come with them, and asks if he would ever join in on their late night sessions of pin the pointy stick on the weather girl. At The End of the line, Lister is looking to the right, but in the next shot, he is suddenly looking downwards. (00:12:35)

Casual Person

Legion - S6-E2

Continuity mistake: When Legion brings the feast, Kryten is stood by the door. Rimmer says about how he appreciates art, then in the next shot of the Cat, Kryten walks behind him. Kryten would have had to walk past Rimmer in the previous shot to get there yet we did not see him while Rimmer was talking. (00:13:15)

Legion - S6-E2

Continuity mistake: When Lister finishes pouring a glass of Bucks Fizz, he begins to place the jug back on the table with his hand still on it, but in the next shot, the jug is now on the table with Lister's hand nowhere near it. (00:20:20)

Casual Person

Legion - S6-E2

Continuity mistake: When Legion puts his mask back on, just as he says "Kryten knows", the mask is not properly fixed on, leaving his chin exposed, but when the camera is on him next, the mask is suddenly fixed into place. (00:21:35)

Casual Person

Back To Reality - S5-E6

Factual error: While it is true that lithium carbonate can be used to treat depression and other psychiatric disorders, it cannot be administered in gaseous form. It is a very stable salt and only starts to form vapour at 1,310 degress Celcius. Spraying it about as a 'mood stabliser' at that temperature, as Kryten does, is going to kill everyone on the spot.

Lister: What, they fixed your core program and then decided they'd be better off without you?
Holly: Yeah, it was shortly after they met me.

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.
