Picture Day - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: I'm not sure what type of mistake this counts as, but in here it is. In the episode "Speaking of Cancer" in season four, Jennifer reveals that she has been lying to Jack and Katie about them all having a shellfish allergy for years because it costs too much for them all to eat it, but in the season one episode "Picture Day" Dave puts down a plate and Jennifer says "Ooh are those crab-cakes?" and takes one to eat. Jack was sitting next to her, so he should have heard this and tried to stop her.

The Jolly Boys' Outing - S6-E7

Continuity mistake: In 'The Unlucky Winner Is' (which is set before Rodney and Cassandra marry) Del changes Rodney's date of birth to 2nd November 1974 in order to make him appear 14, meaning this episode is set sometime between November 1988 and November 1989. However, in this episode, which takes place after Rodney and Cassandra have been married a whole year, a sign in the window of the coach (which can be seen just as the coach is leaving the police station) states that this episode takes place in 1989, and it is on a Bank Holiday weekend, thus can be no later than August 1989.

Gourmet Night (a.k.a. Gourmet's Paradise) - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: There appears to be a very obvious splice edit in this episode. When Basil manages to get Kurt off him after being pinned to the kitchen table, he pushes Kurt against the wall knocking him out. Before this Basil is lying flat on the table and we never see him get up to a standing position beforehand.
