The Young Ones

Boring - S1-E3

Visible crew/equipment: When the seriously injured chip is voicing her last words to the carrot, the wire moving her is painfully obvious coming in from the bottom right of the screen. Immediately after that we zoom in on the carrot and can easily see the wire moving it too.

Interesting - S1-E5

Visible crew/equipment: When Rick talks to the Christian woman, there is one shot showing the stairs behind her. In the upper right corner of the screen you can see someone's legs as he walks out of sight. None of the characters should be there at that precise moment.

Bambi - S2-E1

Visible crew/equipment: When the song "Ace of Spades" is playing, we see the camera pan up to the singer. You see the studio lights reflected in his sunglasses, as well as part of the camera.

Summer Holiday - S2-E6

Mike: Where's Vyvyan?
Rik: Well, he said he was going inside to water his plant. Strange that such a ruthless and sadistic maniac as Vyvyan should care for a begonia. Must have had it two years now.
Mike: And it was dead when he got it.
Rik: Yes... Still, give him his credit - he's watered it every day!
Mike: Only because he can't be bothered to go upstairs to the lavatory.

Trivia: It's obvious that they just walked into the train station and started filming, because all throughout the sequence people are staring at them.
