Little Problems - S6-E6

Visible crew/equipment: Just after the video recorder blows up, you can see the shadow of one of the cameras on the video recorder. It slowly moves out of the camera's view.

The Jolly Boys' Outing - S6-E7

Visible crew/equipment: When the Trotters are in bed, look at the top left corner of the screen. A boom mic can be seen coming down and then going back up. Look carefully, its a dark scene.

Yuppy Love - S6-E1

Visible crew/equipment: In the very first scene when Rodney is working on his computer, you can see movement in the reflection on the screen. Obviously the crew getting ready to film.

Mistakes

The Jolly Boys' Outing - S6-E7

Continuity mistake: In 'The Unlucky Winner Is' (which is set before Rodney and Cassandra marry) Del changes Rodney's date of birth to 2nd November 1974 in order to make him appear 14, meaning this episode is set sometime between November 1988 and November 1989. However, in this episode, which takes place after Rodney and Cassandra have been married a whole year, a sign in the window of the coach (which can be seen just as the coach is leaving the police station) states that this episode takes place in 1989, and it is on a Bank Holiday weekend, thus can be no later than August 1989.

Chosen answer: An apparent long string of illnesses.

Answer: Joan Mavis Trotter (Nee Hollins) was an unseen character in Only Fools And Horses, having died in 1964, 17 years before the series began. She died of an alcohol related illness due to both her sham marriage to Reg Trotter and being hit hard by the death of her secret lover Freddie "The Frog" Robdal.
