Continuity mistake: At the start of the 'Welcome Back George McIntyre' reception scene, Lister, Chen and Selby are throwing things at Rimmer, then Rimmer looks around. In the next shot, Lister and Chen are looking round to their left, Selby is stabbing between his fingers, Rimmer is now looking straight forwards and Petersen has appeared from nowhere. (00:09:40)

Other mistake: When Rimmer tries to silence the vending machine, he covers up the input microphone with stickers instead of covering the speaker just above it. (00:05:05)
Suggested correction: This isn't a mistake. There's no evidence that the speaker is just above the microphone (the "speak here" grill). The vending machine tells Rimmer to take his hand off its speaker when his hand is over the "speak here" grill. This suggests that the grill covers both the microphone and speaker.

Plot hole: Pete the sparrow was dead before the time wand was used on him to become a dinosaur. When the undo button was pressed, Pete should have turned back into a dead sparrow. (00:23:10)
Suggested correction: Unless the "undo" time on the wand was set to shortly before he died, it isn't explained exactly how the wand works or what the control options are, so it's possible.

Plot hole: Lister is not allowed any dangerous objects that he might try to commit suicide with, yet when he is with the canaries on their missions, he carries an assault rifle. The canaries aren't always supervised and it would be impossible for a guard to stop any of them putting a gun to their head and pulling the trigger. (00:05:05)
Suggested correction: We only hear from Rimmer that that's a rule. Rimmer is usually wrong about most things.

Plot hole: Lister and Kryten seem to know about Cassandra's prediction that Rimmer would sleep with Kochanski despite the fact that they were not there when Cassandra said it. (00:25:15)
Suggested correction: Rimmer told them, just not on screen.

Continuity mistake: At The End of the episode when Lister, Kryten, the Cat and Kochanski are dressed as the Dibleys, they walk into the corridor in a line and Kochanski stops when she bumps into the Cat. In the next shot there is a suddenly a space between them. (00:26:40)
