Season 1 Episode 7 - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: In the Daffyd sketch, Daffyd has two nipple piercings. As those other gay men come through the door and he pushes them back, his right nipple ring has moved up his body - obviously a clip on. It stays there for a few moments, until the next shot where it's back on his nipple, with no time to put it back on. (00:10:05)

Season 1 Episode 7 - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: In the sketch where Lou is about to paint Andy's bedroom, in the first wide shot, as Lou picks up the red paint, there is a paint tray, with two rollers and two brushes in it. Then when it cuts, the two rollers are now laying on the floor, and aren't in the tray. (00:05:45)

Season 1 Episode 4 - S1-E4

Deliberate mistake: In the scene where Peter Andre and his producer watch the footage of the royal family, in the background you can see princess Diana and the queen mother who had both unfortunately passed away before Little Britain was made. They had to use the old footage but it is still a mistake.

Season 1 Episode 2 - S1-E2

Audio problem: When Sam Bailey is getting his driving lesson from the policeman, they both stand next to the car and we hear "Get in, soft lad." The policemans lips are moving although it is Sam's voice. (00:26:35)

Season 1 Episode 3 - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When Dafyyd and Myfanwy are talking about what things gay people can do, keep an eye on Dafyyd's drink. In one shot, it is half full, and then it cuts to a close-up of him and when it cuts back, it's nearly empty. (00:13:15)

Season 1 Episode 3 - S1-E3

Factual error: When we see the rack of letters Kenny Craig has when he is playing scrabble with his mum, he has 3 "Y"s. There are only 2 letter Y's in the game Scrabble. (00:06:25)

Season 1 Episode 5 - S1-E5

Plot hole: When the Prime Minister is getting his morning briefing from Sebastian, why does the PM's wife come in with his dinner suit telling him to get ready? He has quite a while till dinner.

Narrator: Of course, I don't mean the real Prime Minister, I mean that guy from Buffy.
