Danger UXD - S6-E2

Continuity mistake: When Rodney and Cassandra are having their meal, pay attention to Rodney's beer. Whenever the camera shot is from behind Rodney, his beer has a reasonable head to it.

Chain Gang - S6-E3

Plot hole: When all the gang including Arnie leave the flat to go to the restaurant to meet Mr Stavros, Rodney decides to stay at the flat and wait for Cassandra to phone him. The next scene shows the gang all watching Arnie in the restaurant waiting for Mr Stavros to arrive. Rodney is sat in the van with Uncle Albert but Rodney decided to stay at the flat so there was no way of him being there.
