Quotes
[Rimmer convinces Holly to show him the captains files on the crew.]
Rimmer: Give me...give me Lister's. Just the remarks.
Holly: David Lister, Technician, 3rd class. Captain's remarks: "Has requested sick leave due to diarrhea on no less than 500 occasions. Left his previous job as a supermarket trolley attendant after ten years because he didn't want to get tied down to a career. Promotion prospects: zero."
Rimmer: I always liked Captain Hollister. Such a great reader of men, was Captain Hollister. A marvellous, marvellous man and a tragic loss to us all. All right, Holly, give me...give me mine.
Holly: Arnold Rimmer, Technician, 2nd Class. Captain's remarks: "There's a saying amongst the officers: If a job's worth doing, it's worth doing well. If it's not worth doing, give it to Rimmer. He aches for responsibility but constantly fails the engineering exam."
Rimmer: Whoa, whoa, whoa, Holly, Holly. I want *my* report. Rimmer. Two M's, E, R.
Holly: "Astoundingly zealous. Possibly mad. Probably has more teeth than brain cells. Promotion prospects: comical."
Rimmer: No no no no no, Holly. I want *Rimmer*. That's two R's, one at the front, one at the back.
Trivia
When the crew of Starbug have to decide which of the two "Dave Listers" aboard is the real thing, they line both up for a test of their guitar playing ability. One "Dave Lister" plays a blistering, dazzling, guitar solo; the other plays dreadfully. The rest of the crew immediately know that the one that played the guitar brilliantly is the 'fake'. (Dave Lister only THINKS he can play guitar well - in fact he's hopeless at it.). The hands that we see playing the 'brilliant' guitar solo belong to "Roxy Music" guitarist Phil Manzanera. (Grant Naylor had originally wanted to get 'Queen' guitarist Brian May to play the solo, but he wasn't available). See more...

The Inquisitor (season 5, episode 2)
Visible crew/equipment: A boom mic shadow appears on Lister's head just after he opens the door with the severed hand.
Revealing: Just after the Trojans' conversation, there are two jolts. Lister jumps back too soon on the second jolt.
Continuity: When Starbug gets taken over and Kryten says it is not a malfunction, he has his hands in the air. The camera cuts to Rimmer, and Kryten's hands are by his side.
Continuity: When the Inquisitor jumps Kryten from behind, Kryten's arm changes positions between cuts.
Continuity: When the second version of Allman appears, he has his arms folded. In the next shot, they're down by his side.
Visible crew/equipment: At the start of the episode, when Lister and Kryten talk about Lister's comic, a boom mic shadow can be seen on Kryten's head.
Continuity: When the Cat says, "So what do we do with them?" Kryten disappears from Lister's left between camera shots.
Continuity: Lister says his ID code is Lister-D-00169, yet in Furture Echoes he gave it as RD-52169.
Continuity: Just after the inquisitor is frozen when Lister and Kryten switch gauntlets, the glove gets onto Kryten's hand in one camera cut.
Audio problem: When Kryten says 'Excuse me, could I just distract you for a brief second?' his lips are out of sync with the dialogue and continue to move after he has finished speaking.
Continuity: When Starbug jolts for the first time, Rimmer is looking to his right. The camera cuts and he is looking forwards.
Continuity: When Lister says 'We don't exist here anymore,' the way Kryten is facing changes between cuts.
Plot hole: Allman does not remember his trial when the Inquisitor erases him, yet Lister and Kryten do remember their trial when they are sentenced.
Continuity: When the Inquisitor attacks the crew in the lift, Kryten and the Cat go from crouching to standing stright up between camera angle switches.
Continuity: After the future Kryten cuts off the Inquisitor's hand with the chainsaw, he kicks the glove which lands about 7 feet away from Lister. In the next shot Lister simply bends down and picks the glove up from in front of him.
Continuity: When the Inquisitor jumps Kryten from behind, he used both hands. In the next shot he is only using one hand to hold him.
Visible crew/equipment: When Lister is being taken over by the inquisitor, a boom mic shadow can be seen moving on Kryten's chest.
