Mistake Visible crew/equipment: During the conversation between Blackadder and Baldrick, as Baldrick explains what he spent the £400.000 on, we can see the shadow from the boom mike moving on Blackadder's fur coat. (Time) Submitted by Mortug

Mistake Revealing: When Blackadder lifts the huge turnip it looks really light. A turnip that size would weight a fair bit. Submitted by Duff "King Of Beers" Mckagan

Mistake Revealing: When Baldrick is on the metal spit rotating by the fire, the fire is just a light up board. Submitted by Duff "King Of Beers" Mckagan

Ink and Incapability

Mistake Factual error: Dr. Johnson completed his dictionary in 1755, 7 years before the Prince Regent was born (1762). So it's unlikely for him to be asking the Prince for patronage.

Nob and Nobility

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When Baldrick is called upon to demonstrate the type of clothing required when visiting France, the edge of the scenery can be seen behind him on his right in the area he enters from.

Mistake Revealing: After Blackadder accidentally kills Smedly with one of the suicide pills, he starts ranting about how useless Smedly is as a hero, because he was dumb enough to fall for the old 'poisoned cup routine.' As he does so, you can see the supposedly dead Smedly behind him, still breathing normally.

Sense and Senility

Mistake Factual error: During the theatre play you can see they are using electric stage lights. Nice move for a series plotted almost 300 years ago. (Time) Submitted by Mortug

Mistake Factual error: At Ms. Miggins' when she says, "There's ever so much hard work," you can see her wearing a bra under her corset. Bras didn't exist at that time. (Time) Submitted by Mortug

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: In the first shot of the theatre play, you can see the boom mike quickly entering the picture to the left on the screen. (Time) Submitted by Mortug

Amy and Amiability

Mistake Factual error: After the Shadow has left Blackadder a captive, she says how much she hates squirrels, and fires two shots from a single shot pistol. Submitted by Jon Sandys

Duel and Duality

Mistake Continuity: When George (dressed as Blackadder) is in the cellar and about to go upstairs, he has one cup on his tray, however when he arrives upstairs there are two cups on the tray.

Mistake Deliberate "mistake": There are a lot of jokes with the name of the book "The Prince and the Pauper." However the book was published in 1881, 51 years after the Prince Regent died.

Mistake Deliberate "mistake": There are several historical dates wrong in this episode. For a start, Prince George didn't become Prince Regent until 1811, and yet this is set before the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805 (as Black Adder gives Wellington some advice on it). Similarly, Wellington didn't get the title "Duke of Wellington" until 1814. Again inconsistent with being pre-Trafalgar.
