Legal Tender Love and Care - S8-E6
Continuity mistake: Abbie puts Niles' burning menu in the ice bucket where it remains for the rest of the scene, next to the bottle of champagne. Sometimes the menu is right up against the bottle and sometimes it is an inch or two apart - with no one touching either item.

Continuity mistake: Abby orders Frasier out of her office and she bends down to pick up his jacket from the floor, even though it had been on the chair throughout the scene. She then throws it and his overcoat out the door after him - we see the jacket land on the floor and the overcoat on his head. She slams the door and the shot goes to Frasier - the jacket is now draping his head, rather than the overcoat.

Continuity mistake: Abbie and the gang are in the restaurant for dinner. Frasier has his elbow on the table over his menu and Abbie says, "In front of your father," and the camera angle now shows Frasier holding the menu.

Continuity mistake: When Abbie arrives at Frasier's apartment, she puts her purse on the coffee table; the strap is hanging between the couch and the table.

Continuity mistake: Roz and Frasier are at Cafe Nervosa and she is telling him about her dream of dancing with Bruce Springsteen. At one point, her hand is on top of her coffee mug and then she lays it on the table; the next shot shows her hand on the cup again, with no time to move it naturally.

Continuity mistake: When Luke and Frasier are talking in the restaurant, and Frasier asks, "So Luke, you're a boat enthusiast?", his forearm is resting on the table. When the shot cuts back to him, only his hand is resting on the table, with no time for him to change position.

Continuity mistake: In the conference room, Frasier says, "I just said that," and the shot shows his arms resting on the table with his hands up, gesturing. The next shot, from the side, shows him leaning back in his chair with his arms right off the table. The shot then goes back to the original position. There was no time for him to move naturally.
Continuity mistake: When Frasier and Luke are on Luke's boat, Luke is holding a book and some yellow papers while they talk. Sometimes the sheets are on top of the book, and sometimes they are underneath the book.

Continuity mistake: Niles is sitting at a table in Cafe Nervosa looking at a magazine - he has a page folded back and we can a large photo on the page. When Roz comes over to use her cell, the shot goes back to Niles and now he has the mag opened at a different page. There's another change when Frasier comes over to use his cellphone. At no time did Niles actually turn a page or even have time to do so.

Answer: It equals the record of James Arness of "Gunsmoke" for the actor who's played the same part on TV NOT in a soap opera. If you include soaps there are two main contenders - William Roache, who's been playing Ken Barlow in "Coronation Street" in the UK since 1960. Don Hastings has been playing Robert Hughes in US soap "As the World Turns" since 1960 as well.
