Only Fools and Horses

From Prussia with Love - S5-E1

Character mistake: Boycie is expecting a boy, but when he finds out it's a girl, him and Del argue. Del then says "I told you it was a girl, but it ain't" He should have said 'boy'. In the script for the episode, it even says 'boy'.

Time on Our Hands - S8-E3

Character mistake: During the scene of the dinner, James (Raquel's father) states that he was in the Royal Navy and was "First Officer" (1/O). The Navy does not have this rank since it is a Merchant Navy rank. The rough equivalent of this is Lieutenant in the RN and Albert would've known this but didn't mention anything. It is also extremely unlikely that an officer the RN would still be Lieutenant after doing his full quota of 12 years service.

To Hull and Back - S4-E8

Continuity mistake: Rodney says that he picked up the money off the table when they were trying to escape from the police, yet if you look closely he never goes near it. And he never has another chance to pick it up.
