The Great Mouse Detective

Revealing mistake: When Ratigan is sneaking up on Basil inside Big Ben, there is a shot where both characters have their backs to the camera. In this shot, there is a piece of equipment directly in front of the turning gear they are standing on. This piece of metal can be seen to flicker for a few moments.

Continuity mistake: When Professor Ratigan first climbs in his hot air balloon, it is a bright pink. Later, when Basil is chasing him through the sky in his home-made balloon, Ratigan's hot air balloon is a very dark burgundy.
