Season 1 generally

Continuity mistake: In Episode 9 of Season 1, Roy Galloway sells his Ford Cortina to a car dealer. He has to wait a day for paperwork and drives away in a Vauxhall Cavalier A242 GLO. He revisits the car dealer, and his Cortina is up for sale on the forecourt for £1495, then drives away in the Cavalier. However, in the next episode, he is back to driving the same Ford Cortina. Again, you don't see the registration, but in Episode 11, it's visible: BBH 469T, the same as in the pilot episode. (00:20:36 - 00:22:20)

PC Cathy Bradford: D'you think Reg is all right?
PC Gary Best: He's not exactly Rambo is he?
Insp. Gina Gold: Reg may not be a superhero, but I know who I'd like to be with me in a tight corner and it wouldn't be you, Best, all right.
