Continuity mistake: Lister enters with a tray with some food on to give to Kryten. The position of the tray changes position between shots. (00:10:10)
Revealing mistake: When it is revealed that the DNA modifier has made Lister smaller, Rimmer, Cat and Kryten all have shadows cast on the floor, but Lister does not. (00:25:25)
Visible crew/equipment: When Lister puts his mutton vindaloo on the DNA modifier, the pole used to make the vindaloo float can be seen when the beam is cast on the dish. (00:22:55)
Continuity mistake: When Lister has been made smaller, one shot shows him holding the bazooka, but the next shot shows him with his hand lowered. (00:25:30)
Continuity mistake: When Lister sarcastically thanks the Cat for visiting him, Lister looks forwards, but in the next shot is looking at the Cat. (00:03:35)
Continuity mistake: When the group are about to open the door with the heat seeking missiles inside and the Polymorph sneaks up behind them, Lister is standing at the front of the group, Cat and Kryten are behind Lister and Rimmer is standing at the back, behind all three. In the next shot, as the missiles exit the door, Rimmer is now suddenly standing front of Cat. (00:24:40)
Revealing mistake: When Rimmer is piloting Starbug in Lister's body, there is a shot of Starbug spinning in circles. This is a shot that was taken from S3 E2 Marooned, of Starbug crashing after colliding with the asteroid. The only difference is the planet in the background has been changed. (00:22:10)
Continuity mistake: When Lister (in Rimmer's body), Cat and Kryten are chasing Rimmer in Blue Midget, the exterior shot shows all three sitting in one row. From the interior, Cat is sitting in front of Lister and Kryten, and Lister and Kryten are sitting behind Cat. (00:22:40)
Continuity mistake: When Rimmer (in Lister's body), is driving Starbug through the moon, the others are following in Blue Midget. One shot shows Blue Midget directly behind Starbug, but another shot shows Blue Midget much further to the right. (00:23:10)
Timeslides - S3-E5
Continuity mistake: When Kryten notices the photo of the bike in the countryside is moving, the peg attached to it is near the middle, along the top, but in the shot from behind, the peg is much closer to the right. The same goes for the photo of Kryten's birthday party. (00:03:30)
Revealing mistake: During the chase on the moon, there is a shot from in front of Starbug crashing into an asteroid. About twenty seconds after this, the exact same shot of Starbug crashing into an asteroid is been repeated a second time, when the ship crashes. (00:23:20)
Timeslides - S3-E5
Continuity mistake: When Lister and Gilbert are looking at the statue of Lister in the courtyard, Lister has his arms crossed in an angle from above, but when the shot cuts back, his arms are at his side, before crossing them again. (00:19:25)
The Last Day - S3-E6
Audio problem: When Lister tries to shoot Hudzen, Hudzen grabs Lister and throws him, but a punch sound effect can be heard, despite no punch being made. (00:26:15)
Timeslides - S3-E5
Continuity mistake: When Lister is looking through Hitler's briefcase, he finds a banana and crisps sandwich with a bite taken from it. When Rimmer takes a bite out of the same sandwich later in the episode, the sandwich is whole. (00:08:30 - 00:26:15)
Continuity mistake: When the Polymorph is switching between various appearances at the start, it stops at a rabbit. When the Polymorph stops at the rabbit, there is a damp stain beside the two yellow lines on the floor. This damp stain was not there when the Polymorph was switching between other forms. The stain just suddenly appears out of nowhere. (00:01:45)
Audio problem: When Kryten starts looking over Lister's bunk trying to find the Polymorph, posing as the boxers, the boxers, and therefore the Polymorph, are visible on the bunk. The sound of the Polymorph transforming is heard, indicating the Polymorph has changed form, but the boxers remain there, without any transformation. It is not until a few shots after that the Polymorph has appeared to have changed form. (00:10:00)
Continuity mistake: After Starbug and Blue Midget leave Red Dwarf, there is a shot of Blue Midget driving away from the ship, towards the camera. Cat and Kryten are the only two on board as Rimmer and Lister are on Starbug, but there are three people shown inside Blue Midget. This is because the shot was taken from series two, in which Rimmer, Lister and Cat were inside it. (00:03:25)
Continuity mistake: When Lister is telling Rimmer that he is going to die and that Rimmer doesn't need food, there is snow over his face, hair and coat collar, but a few seconds later, the snow has mostly disappeared. (00:09:35)
Continuity mistake: Rimmer wears a hat with an antenna on the right hand side when on Starbug, and after arriving on Earth, but when he and Kryten are walking through the streets later on, the antenna is now on the left side of his hat, and is far more extended. (00:02:20 - 00:08:00)
Continuity mistake: When Kryten is piloting Starbug and gently "eases forwards", there is a shot shown from behind Starbug where it is driving out of the cargo bay to the exit, and it is shown a couple feet off the ground. When Starbug exits Red Dwarf in the next shot, Starbug is suddenly much higher above the ground. (00:04:20)
Answer: Presumably he does, but it's never been used in any material related to the show. He is the only Cat left (as shown in Series 1), so even if he had once had a name, nobody would know it.
