Shogun (1980)

Episode #1.1 - S1-E1

Character mistake: In the opening minutes of the first episode, as the Erasmus is struggling through a storm, Blackthorne is told that the boatswain is dead. He checks the corpse and then says, "Get the body aloft," which would entail carrying the deceased up the mast. The correct order would be "Get the body topside."

Vasco Rodrigues: Listen to me, you whore-gutted, pock-marked, motherless scum... I need a favor.

Trivia: In the explosion that kills Mariko, Blackthorne is temporarily blinded; but in the novel, the explosion makes him deaf, which actually makes more sense.
