Modern Men - S8-E2

Revealing mistake: When Del and his mates are in the pub, when it's Del's turn for the drinks, he gives Mike a hairdryer (really an electric paint stripper). If you notice, Del picks up the hairdryer off the floor.

Heroes and Villains - S8-E1

Continuity mistake: At the time Damien appears in the lounge with a baseball cap on, asking Rodney if he wants to play war, the shot shows him with his cap slanted to the left, next shot it's to the right and finally it ends up being straight on his head. (He was obviously quite fidgety behind the scenes).

Danger UXD - S6-E2

Continuity mistake: When Rodney and Cassandra are having their meal, pay attention to Rodney's beer. Whenever the camera shot is from behind Rodney, his beer has a reasonable head to it. But in the apparent instant that it changes to from behind Cassandra, the beer has absolutely no head whatsoever. This happens a couple of times.

The Unlucky Winner Is... - S6-E4

Revealing mistake: When Rodney and Del are sitting on the balcony and Cassandra has gone to get Rodney a drink, if you look in the glass door, you can see Cassandra's reflection with the drink waiting for her cue to come in.

Chain Gang - S6-E3

Plot hole: When all the gang including Arnie leave the flat to go to the restaurant to meet Mr Stavros, Rodney decides to stay at the flat and wait for Cassandra to phone him. The next scene shows the gang all watching Arnie in the restaurant waiting for Mr Stavros to arrive. Rodney is sat in the van with Uncle Albert but Rodney decided to stay at the flat so there was no way of him being there.

The Sky's the Limit - S7-E2

Continuity mistake: When Boycie is playing with his new satellite dish, Marlene comes into the garden with Tyler in a pram - watch the pram switch backwards and forwards as they are having a conversation.

The Class of '62 - S7-E5

Audio problem: When Del invites all his mates round to his flat after the reunion, they start to go through a number of photos. When Del shows them the photo of the school football team, Trigger says, "There's that Italian kid, good player, what was his name?" But if you look closely, Trigger's voice has been dubbed over. Instead, he says, "There's that Italian Prat."

Dates - S5-E9

Revealing mistake: When Albert says to Rodney about his date, "Where are you taking her? Scrumping?" As he says that line, look at Del. He mouths them by accident. (00:26:40)

Joe Mc

The Frog's Legacy - S5-E8

Revealing mistake: In the bar scene at the start, Del and Rodney are talking to Mike to try to get him to by a computer that doesn't work. The leaflet that Del reads off, is completely blank.

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? - S5-E6

Revealing mistake: When Del and Jumbo come into the Nags Head to discuss business, Del asks Mike for an Australian lager for Jumbo. Mike lists other Non-British lagers as a choice. When Jumbo says he'll have one of them, Mike produces a pint in less than 10 seconds, certainly no time to have poured a pint.

Video Nasty - S5-E5

Continuity mistake: When Mickey Pearce is filming, Rodney walks in and says something, then turns and walks back into the kitchen. When the video is shown at the Nag's Head, Rodney turns the other way before walking out.

Tea for Three - S5-E4

Continuity mistake: When Del & Rodney are talking to Andy on the hill just before Del goes hang-gliding, look at the first shot of Andy. Over his shoulder, the Trotter van is in full view. The shot then turns to Del & Rodney and when it goes back to Andy, there is no van.

Tea for Three - S5-E4

Trivia: When the hang glider scene was filmed, David Jason wanted to actually fly the glider himself. He is a trained glider pilot, scuba diver, and swims with dolphins! But the BBC said it was too dangerous for him to fly it, for insurance reasons.
