Great Expectations - S6-E8

Corrected entry: Carol delivers one of the twins and then receives an epidural. Epidurals are not given when the actual delivery is near, and certainly not between delivering twins.

Correction: Absolutely false; many doctors prefer setting up the epidural before multiple births to avoid complications and lawsuits, though it can be done later; the epidural - which slows contractions, may be given later in delivery. Also, after one twin is born naturally an epidural may be given - under the right set of circumstances, before an emergency C-section of the second twin. This is the case with Carol Hathaway, who was already 10 cm and ready to push with the first, when she arrived at the ER.

Super Grover

Correction: If you look close on this scene you can see that this is a sort of "special" clock that I have seen in hospitals. The hour hand takes twenty four hours to make a complete revolution. This makes just looking at the position of the hands a little confusing you need to look at the numbers and you can see that it was 20:34.

Love's Labor Lost - S1-E20

Continuity mistake: As Mark futilely pounds on Jodi O'Brien's chest, Carol can be seen in the background, removing her protective glasses with one hand. However, after the Time of Death has been called and they're showing the reactions of everyone present in the room (Susan, Carol, Carter, Lydia, Chen), Carol is seen taking the glasses off again, this time with both hands.
