Visible crew/equipment: Whilst Eddie is watching Miss World on the television, Richie walks over to the window to clear the uneaten food from the plates. In the shot shown from the window looking into the apartment, just as the shot starts, a boom mic can be seen towards the left of shot and is then quickly pulled out of frame. (00:13:55)
Bottom (1991)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake in Contest
Starring: Adrian Edmondson, Rik Mayall
Genres: Comedy
Continuity mistake: When Ritchie, Eddie, Spudgun and Dave Hedgehog enter the pub with the fake money and order drinks, Ritchie asks for Absinthe but is told that the pub doesn't have any and is given Pernod instead. Later, when the £5000 pub quiz poster is pointed out, Ritchie says he's had half a pint of Absinthe and can't see anything. Where did the Absinthe come from if the pub didn't have any earlier in the episode and they never left?
Trivia: Adrian Edmondson and Rik Mayall met at drama college in 1975. Adrian said he couldn't stand the sight of Rik and when he saw him he thought...well what a tosser.
