Starring: Rowan Atkinson

Genres: Comedy, Family

Mind The Baby, Mr. Bean - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: During the course of the episode, the baby's appearance changes between wide shots and close-ups. It is most noticable when Bean puts the baby into the Postman Pat car. (00:08:05)

Mind The Baby, Mr. Bean - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: When Mr. Bean is playing the dart game, he cheats by putting a card on a dart and throwing it at the wall. When he throws it, the card sticks to the wall on an angle, but when he calls for the guy to look at it, the camera cuts back and now the card is straight and not on an angle. (00:17:10)

Mind The Baby, Mr. Bean - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: When Mr Bean attaches some balloons on the baby's pram, the balloons take the pram into the air. Mr Bean then bursts some balloons to get the pram out of the air, although in some shots you can see all the balloons still fully intact.

Goodnight, Mr. Bean - S1-E18

Other mistake: When calling their next patient, the nurses look at the small screen to find out what number is next. After Mr. Bean has rotated the device, however, a nurse calls number 92 before the screen displays the 9. (00:06:22)

Trivia: The Latin lyrics used at the beginning are "Ecce homo qui est farba, qui est farba, qui est farba", which mean "Behold the man who is a bean". At the end, it's identical, but "Ecce" is changed to "Vale"; "Farewell, man who is a bean." Before and after the advert break (in the UK version), the lyrics are "Fin de partie primae" and "Pars secunda" - "End of Part One" and "Part Two".

Chosen answer: I'm guessing it is because he bought a new car. At the end of the first Bean, he crashed the mini. You hear the crash and see his wheel bouncing down the road. Safe to assume it was a write-off.

Answer: Yeah he had a red Mini at the beginning but it ends up getting crashed at the end of the episode. And then in other episodes he has a green Mini.

Dan23

Answer: So you didn't see the end of the first episode when he crashed the old Mini and the wheel fell off? Plausible that he bought a new one afterwards.

Answer: I think it is because in the last episode his green car got smashed in the ceremony and he bought a red mini until he got a new green mini.
