Revealing mistake: When Rimmer throws a cowboy over the bar, it wobbles. (00:21:35)
Gunmen of the Apocalypse - S6-E3
Revealing mistake: When the Cat says 'not if you believe those lying cartoons' you can see Lister mouth the line. (00:09:50)
Revealing mistake: As Lister tries to sharpen/shorten his nails after getting out of deep sleep, you will see just before he stops that one nail snaps at the finger. He continues as if nothing happens, holding his hand still, as if it was still in the sharpener. (00:02:00)
Revealing mistake: When Legion places the hard light in Rimmer's light bee, it is noticeable that the hard light does not go inside the device. It is placed more to the area beside it. (00:09:55)
Revealing mistake: When Lister hits Legion over the head, his mask falls off. In the shot that shows Rimmer, Cat and Kryten in the foreground sitting at the table and Lister and Legion in the background, Legion's face can be seen and it is apparent that it is not the combination of the four that is his face, but in fact the actor's real face.

Gunmen of the Apocalypse - S6-E3
Revealing mistake: At the start of the episode, we see Lister in black and white talking to Loretta. Then we cut back to what's really happening, he is playing on the AR console. Look at the door behind him, you can see Kryten's hand sticking out in the doorway. He is supposed to rush in and start talking, but you can see him waiting off camera to be told when to enter the room.
Answer: The cello is a large four-stringed instrument, which, when it is played, stands vertically on the floor between the player's legs (assuming they are seated). If it is to grow as large as the other instuments mentioned will, it would require a rather unseemly lack of femininity to be able to encompass it with the legs.
