Starring: John Cleese, Connie Booth, Andrew Sachs, Prunella Scales
Genres: Comedy
The Germans - S1-E6
Visible crew/equipment: When Basil runs from the restaurant and into the office, as the door opens to the hallway you can see a monitor in the office, showing what we can see. The director must be watching the action from in there.
The Germans - S1-E6
Visible crew/equipment: After Basil has turned the fire alarm off, a boom mic is very clear in the top corner of the screen.
Gourmet Night (a.k.a. Gourmet's Paradise) - S1-E5
Revealing mistake: When the Colonel first meets Basil, the same shot is used twice of the Colonel twitching.
The Wedding Party (a.k.a. Sex) - S1-E3
Basil: Did you ever see that film, "How To Murder Your Wife"?
Major Gowen: How To Murder Your Wife"?
Basil: Yes, awfully good. I saw it six times.
Trivia: Sybil's friend, Audrey, who Sybil is frequently seen talking to on the telephone, has only one on-screen appearence in 'The Anniversary'. She is seen at the very end, when Sybil has just walked out on Basil.
Communication Problems (a.k.a. Theft) - S2-E1
Question: What's the name of the piece of music played when Basil turns up the radio after Mrs Richards says it (the radio) doesn't work?
Answer: It's "Leisure Complex" by Dave Gold and Gordon Rees. Can be found on YouTube. The relevant clip is around 25 seconds in.
Suggested correction: Most places like this are likely to have CCTV and the office would be the optimum place for the manager to watch on the monitor.
CCTV was very uncommon in 1975. It wasn't until the late 80s it became more popular and even then it was of poor quality. Not like what is in the mistake.
