Other mistake: Early on in this episode Regan is moaning about lawyers earning £30,000 a year and that he himself can just about afford a secondhand car, but later on in this episode he is driving a M registration ford Capri, which would have been brand new when this episode was made.
Suggested correction: He is being metaphorical. Reagan is known for his florid turn of phrase.
Character mistake: After Regan and co jump out the back of the police van and a punch up ensues, Brian Blessed quietly walks away to a white car to make his escape. Regan clocks this and goes after him. Brian Blessed lashes out and pushes Regan away, but growls "Carter..." instead.
Suggested correction: Brian Blessed growls 'cozzer', not 'Carter'.
What does cozzer mean?
"Cozzer" means "copper."
Character mistake: Herbie is making an anonymous phone call to Tony Kirby arranging for him to meet Vaughan. He gives a time 3 o'clock but no location, how did Kirby know where to go when he didn't know who was making the call and no location was given? (00:41:56 - 00:42:25)
Suggested correction: We don't hear the whole conversation. Herbie says "I thought you might like to meet him." Then it cuts to Mr. Kirby. He says "I think so" and is writing something down, but we don't hear what Herbie is saying. Then when he's finished writing he asks "what time?" It's safe to say Herbie was giving him the address and he was writing it down before being told "3:00."
