Mistake Continuity: When Barbara Windsor is getting undressed to prove that she is not a man, there is a red garment which is crumpled up on the bed behind her. When she finishes undressing the red garment is spread fully across the bed.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Sid James is trying to teach Barbara Windsor to count by using her two best assets, watch his coat. From the front Sid wears a white shirt, brown waistcoat and matching top-coat. From the back however, Sid has lost his top coat and is in his waistcoat and shirt sleeves. As the scene cuts between the two shots, Sid's coat disappears and reappears.

Mistake Continuity: When Jack Douglas is climbing the wooden ladder in the bell tower, his right leg gets caught in the bell rope set as a trap by the Reverend. However, when he is shown swinging, it is his left leg that is in the rope.

Mistake Continuity: When Sid James is talking to the landlord of 'The Old Cock Inn', from the distant shot Maggie is sitting at a bench in front on her own. When the scene switches to close-up, there is a man sitting next to her.

Mistake Continuity: When Bernard Breslaw and Kennith Williams are at a table (with two others). Bernard says about "Such stupidity". As he says this, he is lifting a glass of wine to his mouth. When Williams says his line directly after, Bresslaw is pouring his drink again.

Mistake Factual error: As Kennith Williams and Bernard Bresslaw approach a notice board on horseback, you can blatently see the road they are on. You can even see the white hazard lines on the road. Apart from anything else, Tarmac wasn't even invented until 1901 yet this episode is set in 1750.

Mistake Continuity: The scene where Sid James is talking to Barbara Windsor, he is teaching her to count. When the camera is behind Sid, he is not wearing a coat but when the shot is in front of Sid, he has a coat on. This happens quite a few times through the scene.

Mistake Factual error: Look out for the War Memorial on the green outside the Reverend Flasher's (Sid James) churchyard: it is dedicated to those who fought in died in World War I (1914-18) and World War II (1939-45). Yet "Carry On Dick" is supposedly sometime in the 1750s.

Mistake Continuity: When Kenneth Williams & Jack Douglas are at the 'The Old Cock Inn', the candle on their table gets bigger and smaller throughout the scene. At one point it has nearly burnt completely down, yet when Jack Douglas comes out of the toilet for the second time, it has grown back to at least six inches.
