Visible crew/equipment: As the camera looks at Skipper and Gilligan, after the tossing of the sail, the edge of the studio tank is visible for a few seconds in the background.
Gilligan's Island (1964)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake in Two on a Raft
Starring: Alan Hale Jr., Jim Backus, Bob Denver, Natalie Schafer
Revealing mistake: Near the end of the episode, all the castaways are passed out cold when Lord Beasley finally catches his butterfly. Right after saying the line "That's the trouble with you Americans - you simply don't know how to hold your tea" as he's exiting off camera, Mrs. Howell starts to open her eyes slightly, but then quickly shuts them again. Perhaps she thought the cameras stopped rolling.

Trivia: In the dream sequence, little Gilligan was played by Bob Denver's son Patrick.
Question: In this episode, as the Professor is put into a trance, in the background, there seems to be a radio or television transmission tower that can be seen over the roof of the hut. It's blurry, but doesn't seem to be a standard palm tree. Is this a mistake, or set error, or my imagination?

Chosen answer: It looks like a mistake to me I see it when the Professor is put into a trance, but it is not there later.
