Revealing mistake: In the later intros (when Mr Bean falls into a spotlight in a town) part of Mr Bean's foot isn't in the spotlight, but it still has a shine.
Visible crew/equipment: When Mr Bean parks his car outside the examination hall, as he reverses into his spot, you can see a group of plain-clothed crew members pushing the camera reflected in the car nearest to the camera. More noticeable as the camera is actually moving. (00:00:35)
Visible crew/equipment: Before the church scene, Mr. Bean drives into the car-park and knocks the blue car off the road. Look at the car closest to the camera, as Mr. Bean reverses, you can see a person and a crane above him reflected in the window. Also, in the blue car's window closest to the camera, you can see dolly tracks. (00:14:15)
The Return Of Mr. Bean - S1-E2
Revealing mistake: When we see the close-up shot of Mr. Bean's new American Express card the first time, the name on the front is Mary.
The Return Of Mr. Bean - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: The yellow towel Mr. Bean puts in his basket in the department store is so large it nearly takes up all the space in his basket, yet when he rides up the escalator, the the towel is now half the size of the basket, even though it's folded.
The Library - S1-E3
Revealing mistake: In the extra 'Library' scene, the book that Bean is given already has the loose pages before he has been at them with the knife. (At one point the pages get pushed forward a little bit, meaning that they're not fastened into the book.)
The Library - S1-E3
Revealing mistake: Just before Mr Bean rips a page out of his book, there is already a tear in it just before he actually tears it, which is not visible in any of the preceding shots.
The Library - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: Just when Mr. Bean's hiccups are over the guy sitting on the table with him takes his right hand up to the book and has his left lower arm on the table. But after Bean hiccups again he suddenly has his right hand down again and his left hand on his book.
The Library - S1-E3
Revealing mistake: When Mr Bean's book falls apart, he tries putting the book back together, and he holds one page up to the camera and it has a slight reflection as if it is glossy paper. As far as I know old books like the one Mr Bean had don't have pages like that. It's an obviously fake book.
Visible crew/equipment: As Mr. Bean goes up the ladder to get to the diving board, the camera follows him, and behind him on the wall you can see the light reflection following him. (00:02:35)
Revealing mistake: When Irma screams at seeing Mr Bean with his jumper pulled over his head, all of the other cinema patrons jump with shock - except for the woman directly behind the two of them, on the right of the screen. She just grins and laughs, forgetting that her character shouldn't be in on the joke.
Continuity mistake: When Mr Bean is trying to get out of the car park through the entrance, he uses a wheelie-bin to simulate a car to get the gate to open. After he's out and shifted the bin, he's blocked in by another car. We see a hand take the next ticket (presumably belonging to the driver of the incoming car) but the car pulling up in front of Mr Bean is so far away from the ticket machine its not possible for him to take it and drive into the car park in the short amount of time seen, plus we never see or hear anybody get out of the car to get the ticket.
Revealing mistake: When Mr. Bean forces the Reliant to reverse out of the car park and turn on its side, as it lays on its side it is obvious that the driver is a plastic dummy.
Continuity mistake: It's clear Mr Bean is hanging from the diving board by one hand by the time the boy decides to stamp on his hand. When the boy does stamp on him, watch the position of Bean's left arm in the next shot – he appears to be holding on with both hands.
Continuity mistake: Just after Mr. Bean's hand is stomped on by one of the boys, and he lets go of the diving board, the camera pans back to show him falling into the water, but the same shot shows no-one else standing on either of the diving boards. The two boys should have still been standing on the higher one.
Suggested correction: This is only an error in the "widescreen," aka cropped version of the episode. In the original 4:3 edit, you can see the two boys at the top of the screen, but the "widescreen" shot cuts them off.
And even then, the boys' legs are still visible in the widescreen version.
Visible crew/equipment: When Mr. Bean takes his TV out of the box, he faces it the way of the camera. As he turns it around a boom pole, a studio light and a camera can be seen reflected in the TV glass. (00:02:15)
Continuity mistake: Mr. Bean places his shoe on top of the car in the bottom right corner. But when he jumps out in front of the car, it is suddenly at the front in the middle.
The Trouble With Mr. Bean - S1-E8
Visible crew/equipment: When Mr. Bean is going to the dentists and is getting dressed in his car, in one shot there is an overhead shot of the car and in the reflection of the windscreen, you can see the crane filming the shot. (00:05:05)
The Trouble With Mr. Bean - S1-E8
Revealing mistake: Near the beginning, when Bean is asleep, we see him put his toe over the hose to prevent the water from spraying out - however, if you watch closely, the water flow stops moments before his toe comes into contact with the hose.
The Trouble With Mr. Bean - S1-E8
Continuity mistake: When Mr Bean is going round the roundabout putting his tie on, there is no traffic waiting in the overhead shots, yet all frontal shots of Bean show traffic waiting in the background.
