Do-It-Yourself Mr. Bean - S1-E13

Factual error: On a close-up of Mr. Bean's calendar at the very beginning, New Year's Eve 1993 is depicted as a Saturday, but in reality, this day was a Friday. (00:00:40)

Mr. Bean Rides Again - S1-E9

Factual error: Bean is seen connecting a set of jump leads to two large brass-like electrodes in a lighting column. These would never be present in real life - especially with so much conductive material on show.

Hair By Mr. Bean of London - S1-E19

Factual error: In the sketch with the train station, when the person in the booth isn't there you can see a map of the British Isles. A piece of land is shown in the English Channel that doesn't exist.

Trivia

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".

Questions

Mr. Bean Goes To Town - S1-E6

Question: In the first act when Bean can only get a decent TV signal by sitting in a certain part of the room, we can hear the soundtrack of a programme "on" Bean's TV. Does anybody know what programme Bean was trying to watch please?

Neil Jones

Answer: Don't think it was an actual programme; more likely just sounds they recorded themselves.
