Red Dwarf

Stoke Me A Clipper - S7-E2

Continuity mistake: When the Nazi commander throws the crocodile at Ace, it changes size between shots. As he throws it, it is small and easy to throw, yet in the next shot it reveals it is taller than Ace. (00:01:00)

Tikka To Ride - S7-E1

Plot hole: In the last series, a point was made that the time drive is not a teleporter, so can only send them backward and forward in time in the one location (Deep Space). So in this episode, how can they now travel to Earth with the same device?

Ouroboros - S7-E3

Continuity mistake: When Kochanski puts the cat in the disintegrator, it changes the way it's facing between shots and again when she takes it out. (00:11:19)

Duct Soup - S7-E4

Continuity mistake: When the ducts are being backwashed, Lister's dreadlocks are on his right shoulder. But when the shot changes and he says "I hate this. I really hate this.", his locks are on his left shoulder. Then the shot changes again and they're back on his right shoulder. (00:23:53)

Beyond a Joke - S7-E6

Continuity mistake: When the simulant drinks his drink, he lifts the cup up to drink, yet in the next shot he lifts the cup up again, repeating the same action twice between shots. (00:13:50)

Dwarf

Epideme - S7-E7

Continuity mistake: When Kryten is looking through Lister's room, Lister's locks move from in front of his left shoulder to behind his back in one cut, and switch back and forth throughout the scene. (00:08:35)

Kryten - S2-E1

Question: When Holly is saying about how he has changed music he says that because of the 2 new notes he's made instruments would be bigger. "Triangles will have four sides. Piano keyboards the length of zebra crossings. Course, women will have to be banned from playing the cello." I don't understand the joke about the cello part. Could someone please tell me what he means?

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.
