Hole - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: Eddie says that the fairground music reminded him of his dads funeral. But in many of the other episodes Eddie says that he has no idea who his father was.

Hole - S3-E1

Revealing mistake: When Richie says "Don't you dare call me overweight young man" and tips the ferris wheel cart over, you can see that it is a dummy representing Richie.

Terror - S3-E2

Revealing mistake: During a few of the "flaming fart" scenes, you can see a wire connected to the bottom of the actors. It's hard to see because it appears that it was attached to their legs in some way, but you can still see it when they move around a lot. The easiest place to see it is when the "devil" knocks on the door and they all fart and jump around, look carefully between/to the side of eddies legs for a black wire. It's not the dressing gown belt because that's tied around their waists.

Terror - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: When the four guys collapse on the floor, after eating the sprouts of evil, Richie still has the challis in his hand. Yet when they wake up, the challis is nowhere to be seen.

Migster

Terror - S3-E2

Character mistake: Eddie, Spudgun and Dave Hedgehog all appear worried at the fact that the devil takes "virgin's blood." However, it is apparent later in the episode that the 'devil' is in fact Dave Hedgehog's daughter, meaning he isn't a virgin.

Suggested correction: Also, Eddie previously slept with the Third Viscountess of Moldavia when Richie's back alley kidney donation backfired and he collapsed, so he wasn't a virgin either, but reacted as though he was.

Although theoretically correct, bear in mind that neither Eddie or Dave Hedgehog aren't particularly bright, and likely forgot they weren't virgins.

Hedgehog's daughter could have been adopted.

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?

Dough - S3-E4

Visible crew/equipment: When Dick Head the barman is explaining to Richie, Eddie and friends that Skullcrusher Henderson is going to be visiting them to "discuss" their counterfeiting operation, a huge boom shadow crosses the scene back and forth several times.

Richie: Well Eddie, we learn something new every day. Today I learned that you're a complete bastard!

Culture - S2-E3

Trivia: Perhaps an odd bit of Trivia, but Dr. O'Grady's treatment ("have your personal organ enhanced so that it comparable in size to a fully grown mountain gorilla") is not as big a ripoff as it sounds. A fully grown gorilla has an erect penis length of around 1.5 inches (on average).
