Back in the Red (1)

Mistake Continuity: When Lister is lying on the top bunk talking to Rimmer about the 83 year old dad, he says "he'd probably pretend to be dead" as he puts is left hand on the side of his face. The camera cuts to Rimmer then back to Lister again, as he puts his left hand on the side of his face again.

Mistake Plot hole: At the end of Nanarchy, Red Dwarf had been rebuilt to be the same as it has always been, yet in this episode it has transformed into its original design.

Mistake Continuity: At the end of "Nanarchy" Starbug 1 flew underneath Starbug 2 at the end of the episode, yet in this episode when the scene is repeated, the ship flies around Starbug 1 instead.

Mistake Continuity: When Starbug crashes through a vent, Lister leans to his far right. In the next shot, he is leaning to his left.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: Just before Starbug crashes and Kryten says they will have sandwiches for lunch, a boom mic can briefly be seen above his head.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: During the scene when Starbug crashes, the camera then does a barrel roll and you can see wooden roof beams of the set and the stage lighting.

Mistake Continuity: When Lister goes to hug Selby and Chen, his locks are over his right shoulder. In the next shot they are behind his back.

Back in the Red (2)

Mistake Revealing: When Kryten's hand inflates and flies away, his forearm bends in the middle.

Mistake Continuity: When Kryten's head falls off it bounces with no velocity, yet in the next shot it is quickly rolling out of the door.

Mistake Continuity: When Kryten tells Kochanski he doesn't have a penis, he turns away from her. In the next shot you can still see Kryten on the right of the screen as he turns away from her again.

Mistake Continuity: In the bathroom when Kryten says he does not want his corrupted files repaired, he holds out his arms. In the next shot when the guards stun him, they are by his side.

Mistake Plot hole: As the luck virus gets you what you want, it should not have cured Lister of the sexual magnetism virus when Kochanski was all over him.

Mistake Continuity: Just after Kochanski jumps on Lister, she stands up and says 'I don't know what got into me' with her hand on her head. In the next shot, her hand is by her side.

Mistake Continuity: When Kryten is restored to his factory settings, the woman is pressing buttons on the keypad. In the next shot, her arm is by her side.

Mistake Continuity: When Rimmer walks down the corridor, his hair is a mess. When he enters the medi-bay it is tidy.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: After Rimmer injects himself and speaks to Captain Hollister, a boom mic can be seen at the top of the screen.

Mistake Continuity: At the end of the episode when Lister, Kryten, the Cat and Kochanski are dressed as the Dibleys, they walk into the corridor in a line and Kochanski stops when she bumps into the Cat. In the next shot there is a suddenly a space between them.

Back in the Red (3)

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: In the cell at the start of the episode, after Rimmer says they have to escape, a boom mic is visible at the top of the screen.

Mistake Revealing: When Rimmer puts the engaged blindfold on and sits on the toilet, he doesn't take his trousers down.

Mistake Revealing: The first time you see Lister, the Cat, Kochanski and Kryten in the AR machine you can see the cat opening his eyes realising that it is not in the script, smiling and then closing his eyes.
