Red Dwarf

Queeg - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: When Rimmer asks Queeq what article 5 is, Queeq is facing slightly to the left. The camera angle changes and he is then facing straight forward. (00:08:25)

Dwarf

Pete (1) - S8-E6

Revealing mistake: In the scene where Kochanski, the Cat, and Kryten first discover the time wand, there are a group of Canaries who are frozen in time from its effects. In the first shot of these people, the woman on the far right of the screen blinks her eyes. (Confirmed on DVD commentary). (00:15:50)

Pete (1) - S8-E6

Continuity mistake: As Norman Lovett points out in the commentary, when the Cat shoots in the basketball game, the ball wasn't going anywhere near the basket. The angle the ball lands in the net in the next shot is completely different as well. (00:06:10)

Dwarf

Bodyswap - S3-E4

Other mistake: The milkshake and toffee crisp come out of a different vending machine to where they were ordered. (00:01:50 - 00:06:55)

Out Of Time - S6-E6

Visible crew/equipment: When the Cat becomes visible again after going through an unreality pocket, the shot changes to a wide shot of the crew. A boom mic can be seen to be pulled out of shot at the top of the screen by Kryten's head. (00:11:40)

Dwarf

Nanarchy - S7-E8

Lister: What, they fixed your core program and then decided they'd be better off without you?
Holly: Yeah, it was shortly after they met me.

Meltdown - S4-E6

Trivia: "Meltdown" was originally planned to be the first episode of Series IV of Red Dwarf. However, the militaristic tone of this episode - and in particular Dave Lister's strident anti-war speech near The End of the episode - meant it fell foul of the BBC censors. The original planned transmission date (Feb 14 1991) coincided with the outbreak of "Operation Desert Storm" - the Gulf War...and the BBC felt that an "anti-war" episode of Red Dwarf would be inappropriate for a country at war with Iraq.
