The Sky's the Limit - S7-E2

Continuity mistake: When Boycie is playing with his new satellite dish, Marlene comes into the garden with Tyler in a pram - watch the pram switch backwards and forwards as they are having a conversation.

Joe Mc

Mother Nature's Son - S7-E10

Continuity mistake: After Rodney tells Del about Miles in the flat, as he says 'I wish I kept my mouth shut now', he sits on the sofa with his arms folded. Almost immediately after, when the shot changes to show Raquel walk in, he is now lounging on the sofa with a newspaper. He couldn't have changed his position that quickly.

Fatal Extraction - S7-E11

Continuity mistake: When Rodney and Del are coming out of the casino in the morning as they're coming down the stairs they don't have their coats on, in the next scene they do.

The Long Legs of the Law - S2-E1

Revealing mistake: At the very beginning of the episode, Leonard Pearce is waiting for the cue for his character to start looking for his teeth. He's standing in the living room, between his room and Del and Rodney's room. (00:00:25)

Suggested correction: Not necessarily a mistake. If someone is looking for something they often try to think where it could be before they start searching.

Clearly not seen the episode. Leonard is stood not moving a muscle and then starts actively looking.

Trivia: The story behind why Trigger calls Rodney Dave is that apparently Roger Lloyd Pack kept getting names mixed up during rehearsals early on in the show's history. "Dave" came from David Jason when he was actually with Nicholas Lyndhurst [Rodney]. It stuck and quickly became part of the show's immense appeal.
