Phoenix Nights mistake picture

Season 2 Episode 2 - S2-E2

Continuity mistake: When Ray Von is walking towards the van with the inflatable in, there is only one person in the van, the driver. But when the shot changes and he is by the driver's window of the van, there is a passenger in the van also.

Suggested correction: This entry is incorrect. If you watch the scene carefully you can see the passenger's nose and mouth very slightly in the window screen, To add to this, if you look at the passenger window as the van pulls up you can see the passenger is leaning against it, obscuring him from the front window shot.

Continuity mistake: During the last episode of the first series doorman Paddy uses his hair spray to give him fuller locks. But at the start of the second series his hair is back to its normal style even though the second series starts where the first series ended with the club on fire.

Suggested correction: The start of the second series takes place some time after the fire of the first season. Many of the staff of the Phoenix have moved on and got new (proper!) jobs. For example, Jerry is now working for Asda, a job he didn't have before. The spray maine (sic) is, as the name suggests, spray-on hair and would undoubtedly come straight off again the first time it gets wet! Plus after a couple of weeks or months, even a slightly more resilient hair spray 'treatment' would have fallen off.

The start of episode 1 of the second series starts with the club still burning and the firefighters putting it out. Paddy is seen standing and watching, without his fuller hair from the hair spray.

Other mistake: At the start of the line dancing scene where Ray Von is deejaying, if you have the subtitles on, it says the song is Hillbilly Rock, Hillbilly Roll by the Woolpackers. It's actually 5,6,7,8 by Steps. (I'm quite embarrassed I know that).
