Ripping Yarns (1976)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake in Whinfrey's Last Case - chronological order
Starring: Michael Palin, Charles McKeown, David Griffin, Michael Stainton
Continuity mistake: When Whinfrey is at the railway station the weather changes from dry to wet.
Trivia: In the pilot of the first series, "Tomkinson's Schooldays," Michael Palin introduces the episode wearing a full black beard, a black poet hat and a black opera cape; but Palin repeatedly bungles his lines and must be coached (by an off-camera Terry Jones) through every word of his introduction. Palin affects the same costume and character to introduce the first episode of the second series, "Whinfrey's Last Case," as well. In both instances, Michael Palin and Terry Jones were mocking the legendary American filmmaker Orson Welles, a heavy drinker who was notoriously difficult to direct and who had descended to appearing in wine commercials on TV by the 1970s.
