Trivia

In this episode only, the part of Kryten was played by David Ross. It was only later, during the writing of the scripts for Series III, that the decision was made to make Kryten a regular member of the cast. As David Ross wasn't available, the part went to Robert Llewelyn, who has played Kryten ever since. See more...

Holoship

Mistake Continuity: When Kryten walks past Rimmer at the start of the episode and says 'I'm on to it right away, Holly,' he manages to move from in front of Rimmer to halfway up the set of steps by the door in one camera cut.

Mistake Audio problem: When Rimmer says 'Those kind of films really irritate me,' his lips do not move during 'Those kind of.'

Mistake Revealing: When Rimmer says 'as if' at the start of the episode, you can see out of the front of Starbug, but there are no stars.

Mistake Continuity: When Lister walks into the main cockpit at the start of the episode, his locks move from in front of his ear to behind it between shots.

Mistake Continuity: When Nirvanah throws the glass to Rimmer, the glass is in her hand in one shot, then mid-air the next.

Mistake Continuity: When Binks teleports onto Starbug, you can see Lister move between the cut as he appears.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When Binks arrives on Starbug, a boom mic can be seen at the top of the screen.

Mistake Continuity: When Binks first speaks to Lister, Lister is looking down. In the next shot he is looking straight forwards.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When Lister says, 'Seems unable to grasp simple threats', a boom mic can be seen at the top of the screen just before the shot changes.

Mistake Continuity: When Lister tries to punch Binks as he disappears, Lister's face changes expressions on the cut.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: After Rimmer and Nirvanah have sex and Rimmer sits up in bed, a camera shadow can be seen on the wall next to Rimmer.

Mistake Continuity: After Rimmer and Nirvanah have sex, as they're getting out of bed, Nirvanah ties her robe twice. In the next shot as she's standing, the robe is open again.

Mistake Continuity: After Nirvanah and Rimmer have sex, the bedsheets where Rimmer was sitting are messed up. When Rimmer is transported away they are smooth and flat.

Mistake Continuity: When Kryten makes his speech about sex being tacky, Lister has a forkfull of curry. The camera changes angles and Lister is taking the fork from his mouth.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: Just after Rimmer becomes smart, Kryten and Lister walk into the room. You can see the shadow of the cameraman on the floor before it pulls away.

Mistake Continuity: When Lister says, 'He is really starting to get on my pecs', Kryten's hand is lowered. In the next shot, it is raised gesturing at Lister.

Mistake Continuity: When Rimmer loses his intelligence during the test, his headphones move from his head to the desk in one camera cut.

Mistake Continuity: When Rimmer loses his intelligence, he wipes his eyes with his right hand. In the next shot he has both hands on the keyboard and is looking over his left shoulder.

Mistake Continuity: During the interviews to replace Rimmer, when Harrison disappears, Lister is looking to his far right. The camera changes angles and he is looking down.

The Inquisitor

Mistake 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.
