Does anyone know of any mistakes that are visible? I know 3. they're all from ep.9 series 1, and the first is when Guy has told Martin to get his bag and then walked off, then someone walked in front of the camera and they're standing in a different position and the woman that was in the very very background is now almost right next to them. which implys that the scene went wrong for some reason and that was the next take. the second is after the "she's my smoo too" line. watch Martin's face very carefully, he's trying so hard not to laugh! the last ones when they're in the ambulance and the shot goes round the ambulance and there's this huge great thing holding the ambulance up, quite clearly visible!
Also, has anyone else noticed, in ep.7 series 1, when Mac's chasing Guy and they sit down at the table, there's a speedy up bit. But they're quite clearly saying something. Does anyone know what that something is?

I noticed that! hmm, it's a mystery...

I've noticed a few times that when someone passes in front of the camera the character's are in different positions... I don't think there are a lot of mistakes though, it must be cos lots of the scenes are done with the one continuous camera thing...

If you watch the end of...either episode 2 or 3 of season 2, at the end when caroline and angela are drinking in the bar, the same extra walks past in the same direction twice....made me crack up when i saw it, as if she was just walking round and round the bar!!!!

I havent noticed. But MeAndMac where is your signiture from? I don't remember the episode or scene. Its the
quote:
Terry - "Have you got a problem with that?"
Guy - "No, I do not have a problem with that. Do you have a problem?"
Terry - "No."
Guy - "Well I then, neither have a problem either."
Mac - "Well that's neither good nor bad then, cause now we can all be CHUMS together."

I know that one! It's the bit where Guy's pretending he's friends with the cleaner (after mac says he's stuck up), and tries to speak cockney slang! I think its ep8 of series 1, though I'm not sure...

Some one pointed out earlier the magic colour changing cusion that Guy is sitting on in the scene where he is playing cards and gives Caro the kiss. It swaps from being white to pink more than once!!

i noticed that during the conversation between mac and holly, in mac's apartment, (S2E6 - i think!) they speed up quite a lot of what mac was saying and i REALLY wanna know what they said.

They may actually add some of those speedy-up conversation on the series2 DVD extras, but it'll probably be unlikely, causing it to be forever lost in time and space!

i thought she was saying earlier?

in s1e2, when martin and boyce are teasing guy about the confession on the noticeboard, martin says below "cello for sale", but actually it was above, because boyce had to pick him up for martin to see it

YES! It really buggged me but i was too distraught about Mac to think about it. Also i re-watched episode 1 series 1 last night and they change clothes in that too. Its all supposed to be one day, hence y caro stays in same clothes but Sue and i think someone else change clothes. Also (and i think they discuss this on the commentary) you cab CLEARLY tell certain bits taken from the pilot by the differences in hair. Boyce and Statham and Guy and even Mac have totally different hair in some scenes! Mac in the scene where he tells off martin for putting a smiley face on a death certificate has long gelled hair.....
DONT TAME THE MANE!!!

After the mini mars bar scene, Jake seems to appear from nowhere (might just be my old tired eyes).

I saw it too and it bugged me. The chocolate cock scene they're wearing one set of clothes (apart from harriet who's wearing them all!) and in their next scene with karen in the window and the clanger they've all changed!! Shouldn't they have checked??

I thought that too! i noticed it when people on a different thread were talking about who jake was meant when he yelled about caro not seeing the person she was supposed to be with thing. but the corridor is empty then he just appears and there doesn't appear to be any corridors off where they were. i thought it was just me!

I've noticed a couple of mistakes in episode 7 (S1 I watch that ep far too often) In the Mac and Guy fight scene if you watch the extras in the background sometimes theres 2 of them and sometimes theres 3 one of them flicks in and out. Also in the canteen when Guy comes over and sings to Boyce and Martin I think Boyce says "thats a really good song I'm going to sing it to Sally" Now Sally is the girl who plays Kim's real namI don't know whether that is a mistake or if hes talking about someone else but its quite interesting (I really need to get out a bit more!)


I don't know its an impossible choice, i'll just have to hope that when I flip the coin it somehow explodes and kills me.
