Deliberate mistake: Edmund's "recollection" of seeing Henry Tudor includes the footage that the audience saw at the beginning; however, Edmund wasn't present when this happened, and thus should not be able to recollect it. Moreover, this scene occurred after Henry had escaped and was in safety, altering the details of the Battle of Bosworth Field. Clearly, the footage was added for the audience's benefit, to be able to link the injured Henry to the introductory scene at the start of the episode.
Blackadder (1986)
1 deliberate mistake in season 1
Plot hole: In 'The Foretelling', it is said that Richard IV reigned for "13 glorious years" with a caption showing 1485-1498. 'The Black Seal' starts on St. Junipers' Day, 1498, but Blackadder spends 12 months locked up with Mad Gerald. So when the Royal Family are finally murdered it is actually 1499.
Blackadder: We are reprieved. It is a triumph for stupidity over common sense.
Baldrick: Thank you very much.
Blackadder: As a special reward, Baldrick, take a short holiday. [Pauses for a second.] Did you enjoy it?

Trivia: There are in fact two versions of the bonfire scene. Although most countries use the intended censored version (where somebody coughs right as Edmund says the F word) there are a few US editions where you can hear him swearing uninterrupted.
