Corrected entry: When Rosemary gets onto her computer to look up "Withersedge", without touching the keypad, about ten sites appear on the screen. Then she types madly, but what's on the screen doesn't change. And then by magic, she finds the exact site they need - the one about Mrs Potts. And when she unplugs the computer so Laura can use the phone, while Laura is talking on the phone, Rosemary stares at the computer as if it's still on, but it isn't.
Rosemary & Thyme (2003)
1 corrected entry in And No Birds Sing
Starring: Pam Ferris, Felicity Kendal, Daisy Dunlop, Ryan Philpott
Factual error: No gearbox problem would cause the noises in the episode, it was a clutch problem.
Trivia: Except for the first episode, where Laura drinks a glass of wine in 2 gulps, she never takes a sip of her drinks - wine, apple juice, nothing - except for tea. She pretends to drink, but doesn't succeed.
Question: When you are wallpapering, what is it that you brush on the paper after it is on the wall? Helena brushes something that looks like glue on the new wallpaper.
Chosen answer: As far as hanging new wallpaper, there is no need to brush on any additional product once it has been pasted to the wall. It appears Helena may be doing an extra decorative step by applying a liquid glaze over the wallpaper to give it a more distinctive look, perhaps creating a sheen effect on the surface. Glaze can also be tinted to give a muted colored tone. It could also be a protective sealant. However, to remove old wallpaper, a product is brushed on that dissolves the old paste so the paper can be easily scraped off.

Correction: Initially the screen is some kind of home portal, they aren't showing sites to do with 'Withersedge'. The search results appear after Rosemary types. Then, when the computer is unplugged, it's the internet cable which is unplugged and then the phone is plugged in. So Rosemary's computer would still be on and still showing the website they were reading - she just wouldn't be able to go to a new page.
