Starring: Adrian Edmondson, Rik Mayall

Genres: Comedy

Culture - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: When Ritchie yells "Aah. Aah. Aah." after the table lands on his toes, the shot zooms out. When Eddie hits him again, he is able to move away from the table. But we never see the table moving the final distance downwards towards the floor (implying he's pulled his feet out from under it), meaning his toes were never under the table at that point, only in the short scene beforehand.

Culture - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: After Eddie has performed checkmate on Richie, Richie punches Eddie who falls over. Eddie gets back up and lifts the table up. The chess board, ashtray, bottle of brown sauce and other things on the table disappear completely in the next shot showing the table land on Richie's feet.

Dough - S3-E4

Continuity mistake: When Ritchie, Eddie, Spudgun and Dave Hedgehog enter the pub with the fake money and order drinks, Ritchie asks for Absinthe but is told that the pub doesn't have any and is given Pernod instead. Later, when the £5000 pub quiz poster is pointed out, Ritchie says he's had half a pint of Absinthe and can't see anything. Where did the Absinthe come from if the pub didn't have any earlier in the episode and they never left?

Eddie: So, er, what did you do then?

Eddie: Why? Is it embarrassing? Shit your pants, did you? Cry, did you?
Falklands War Vet: Quite the opposite, actually.
Eddie: What, you sucked water in through your eyes?
