Orac (series 1)

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Plot hole: When the newly-acquired Orac is first set up on the flight deck, Blake comments that "the other end's connected." Connected to what? Orac didn't require plugging in, other than putting his activator key in place, and that was never connected to anything else. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

Mistake Continuity: When Cally puts her teleport bracelet on in the teleport room, it's on her right wrist. After she and Blake materialize on the planet's surface, the bracelet has mysteriously moved to her left wrist instead. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When Avon calls and wakes Vila up, ordering him to the teleport room, you can see Vila, who's supposed to be in his quarters at this point, hiding in the corridor waiting for his cue. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

Mistake Revealing: When the "phibian" lizard creature attacks Servalan, note the claw that grabs her leg: it is obviously made out of soft fabric and visibly bends as it latches on. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

Redemption (series 2)

Mistake Revealing: As Avon and the crew run through the station and the guard tosses a grenade at them, you can see the white packet of incendiary charges on the floor that will set off the grenade's explosion. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

Mistake Deliberate "mistake": In the escape scene near the end, an explosive charge that went off too soon knocked Paul Darrow over - and briefly out of the shot. Because he was able to get back up and keep running, the accident was left in, though he's said it was fortunate there was no microphone on him at the time, as he uttered a few words that were "definitely not rated PG." (Time) Submitted by Jean G

Shadow (series 2)

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Other: On the flight deck, when Vila says he can't remember anything "between meeting Largo and waking up back on the ship," Bek, sitting behind him, starts his next line too early, stops and waits for Vila to finish, then says it again. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When Vila is talking to Cally on the flight deck, the boom shadow moves across the Liberator's control console. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: The boom shadow forms a distinct outline on the control console next to Vila when the crew are discussing Space City and the Terra Nostra. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

Mistake Revealing: When Bek pulls the silver shroud off of Petey, note the movement on the chest of the corpse, which is obviously breathing. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

Weapon (series 2)

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Plot hole: How very perspicacious of the clone masters to create their duplicate Blakes wearing the exact same outfit that the real Blake happens to have on in this episode, considering they have never seen Blake in person. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When the clone Blake is asking Coser for the weapon and holding his hand out, the boom mike is visible hanging over his head. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Plot hole: The IMIPAK weapon marks its victims and then kills them with a secondary device. But it's inconsistently selective. When Servalan kills the guard with it, Blake and co., marked and standing nearby, are unharmed. But Rashel later warns Travis not to push the button because he and Servalan are marked and would die too. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

Horizon (series 2)

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Continuity: Jenna's bracelet changes from her right to her left wrist in mid-teleport when she and Blake go down to the planet. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Continuity: When the crew teleports up at the end, the shirtless Vila arrives in a completely different position relative to the others. On the surface, he's standing in a ring with the rest of them. When they materialize, he's hunched over and is now in the middle of their circle with the others around him. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

Pressure Point (series 2)

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Plot hole: Whomever designed the base's defenses was an idiot. The electrified matting outside extends for a distance exactly equal to the distance a man can run in the 8 seconds it takes to self-repair; any sensible defense designer would have extended it to a greater distance than it was possible for anyone shooting it to run in that time. Inside the base, we see the ceilings of many passageways (well, actually the same section of passage over and over with different lighting), and the only passage with overhead pipes/monkey bars is the one with the electrified floor. Very convenient.

Mistake Revealing: In the control complex, Avon tosses two coin-like objects onto the electrified floor to test the grid. But the "coin" is already on the floor before the sound effect of it landing can be heard, and the mini explosions the coins set off is the same footage both times. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

Trial (series 2)

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: In one shot of the Liberator's flight deck near the very end, there's a BBC workman's toolbox visible, sitting under one of the control consoles. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

Mistake Factual error: Servalan's space station is shown rotating at a fairly fast clip. But the stars in both her office window and in the courtroom window are stationary. Because the station is spinning much faster than a planet's normal rotation, the stars should be visibly moving. (Time) Submitted by Jean G

Killer (series 2)

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Factual error: Avon and Vila watch the rocket launch from the surface of the planet. The rest of Liberator's crew also watch it from the flight deck, and somehow their view from orbit is at exactly the same angle from which Avon and Vila are seeing it: a ground-to-air shot. (Time) Submitted by Jean G
