Throughout the series there are mistakes and blunders which survived to be included in the final aired versions of the episodes. Some of these are obvious and some are subtle. They were left in for a variety of reasons. Some mistakes weren't deemed important enough for the director to call "cut". Others weren't noticed until the episode was being edited or reviewed and there wasn't enough time or budget to re-take a scene. For whatever reasons, these ``gems'' have slipped through to become immortalized.

Series 1

01. The Way Back

02. Spacefall

Blake changes flight chairs during take-off.

The star screen in the window wobbles as Avon disappears into the hatch.

Zen does not have his transparent dome.

The wall wobbles when Leylan removes the communicator to talk to Blake and again when he replaces it.

Liberator console wobbles when Jenna touches it.

03. Cygnus Alpha

04. Time Squad

No discernable mistakes in this episode.

Gareth: Sorry Paul, the script's disappeared.

Jenna's gun changes from being solid-rimmed to transparent-rimmed when she is in the hold.

Jenna's gun lights up three times as she walks down a corridor.

Her left pant leg rips at the knee in teleport fight with alien.

Her bracelet seems to disappear and reappear while she and Blake are in the capsule and then emerge into the hold. It might be under her sleeve, but it's hard to say.

Jenna's holster dangles where it shouldn't as she kills the first alien.

The wrench hits her back but the bruise is on her arm.

Jenna trips on the teleport console.

05. The Web

06. Seek-Locate-Destroy

A shelf next to Gila wobbles as she tells Blake "do not concern yourself."

Liberator console wobbles when the Federation ships are put on the main screen.

Blake's wound is just a smear of red when seen immediately after the spear is thrown, but has become a gaping gash when Gila treats it.

The outside of the habitat doesn't conform to the inside, or vice versa.

Very bad editing on the swinging rope.

07. Mission To Destiny

08. Duel

Avon jumps when Cally's chair scrapes the floor.

In the scene in which Cally is overcome by sono vapor, and is telepathing "Alone, alone, etc.", Blake reaches for the knob of the air vent and knocks it off the wall. You can hear the little rattle as it rolls across the floor, and Gareth's eyes follow it; his expression flickers as he waits for "Cut" to be called, and when this doesn't happen, he goes on with the scene.

When Blake is leaving Cally and Avon behind to go back to Liberator_, and those two give him their guns, Paul whacks himself on the chin with his gun butt.

This one is really subtle. Watch Paul's hands very carefully when he is reaching inside of that pieceof equipment to cut off the sono vapor... there is a little glint, which I think might be his wedding ring, or whatever that chunky gold ring he wears is.

Avon's hand is a tad too high when he grabs Sara.

As the Liberator moves to ram Travis' ship it wobbles.

Travis fails Astronomy 101. He means to say, "I knew the patrols would push him into this solar system " not "this galaxy."

Gan contradicts himself: he sees Sinofar in the beginning but nods at the end when Blake says, "That's right, you never saw her."

Stephen: Excuse me, are you here for the Ann Summer's party?

09. Project Avalon

10. Breakdown

A camera is caught in shot when Jenna leaves the flight deck.

The bullet holes in the walls don't really match the shooting sequence. And why is Jenna's gun leaving bullet holes anyway?

Blake waits in the corridor to enter the computer room and find Avon just after Gan's attack. He's blocking a patch of light. (unconfirmed)

Stepped on line: Blake almost comes in too early with his line "I'll join you in a minute."

Avon teleports to XK72 with only one bracelet. He sends Renor over to Liberator but then has a bracelet when talking to Ferrin later. Where did that one, or the one he gave Renor, come from?

The view of Liberator and XK72 wobbles each time it's used.

Liberator seen through Ferrin's window wobbles.

11. Bounty

12. Deliverance

Blake's control necklace is undone during the scene where they are locked up. Gan's appears to be as well (it's obviously looser than the others').

The Federation guard knocked unconscious outside Sarkoff's residence disappears as they drive away.

Cally hid the box, but Sarkoff is holding it when they teleport.

Blake is not wearing gloves when zapped in the teleport section, but is when Vila releases his hands.

Tyce is wearing a completely different outfit on the flight deck than the one she teleported in.

Jenna attacks the same Amagon guard twice (same actor).

Vila's bracelet falls to the floor as the injured Ensor is lifted from the teleport bay.

Sally: Somehow this thing plays "chopsticks".

13. Orac

The flight log shows scenes Zen couldn't have seen on the planet surface.

Cally's bracelet changes wrists.

Travis seems to fire around a corner to kill the phibian. His run to Servalan and their walk back to the barricaded section don't match up.

Aristo wobbles when Liberator is in orbit.

Vila can be glimpsed waiting for his cue to enter the teleport section. Avon couldn't have hit Travis's hand from that angle.

15. Shadow

Blake sprays the flight deck when he shouts "Vila!"

Avon apparently leaves his seat during the attack because he has to move back into it.

Blake starts to come in too soon on "Avon get the others down here."

Liberator and Spaceworld wobble on scenes of the ship entering and departing.

Bek nearly comes in too early with his line, "With what you drank."

Cally doesn't carry a moon disc up when she teleports, so where did her pet come from?

16. Weapon

17. Horizon

As Blake enters, Cally is mouthing her last line, "Need all the weapons we can get."

Servalan starts too soon on "Not too obviously I hope."

Travis doesn't die when Servalan uses IMIPAK, even though he has been marked.

Clone calls Coser by name then asks who he is.

Microphone hangs over the clone Blake's head at the end.

Jenna's bracelet changes wrists several times in succession.

The pursuit ship wobbles.

Pursuit ships complete with state-of-the-art
"wobble drive".

18. Pressure Point

Gan's bracelet is on his left wrist when he teleports, but on his right wrist in the church.

As Blake et. al approach the church door, a sound man can be seen on the extreme left edge of the screen.

Servalan and Travis run toward the grenade instead of away from it.

A BBC worker's toolbox is sitting under Jenna's console.

The London can be seen, about to dock, as the Liberator leaves Fosforon.

The salvager goes up as a rocket and comes down as the London, also goes up in daylight and comes down at night.

When does Avon grab the crystal? He and Tynus struggle for it, Tynus is electrocuted and the crystal isn't on the console as it was during the fight, but Avon doesn't get near the body. Yet he has the crystal in hand when they teleport.

Blake is not wearing his gun when he falls down the slope after being pushed by a crimo.

Liberator is repeatedly attacked and, viewed from the rear, the top right section of the "engine" melts.

The costume of the crimo that Ushton fights changes from having yellow trim to red trim as he attacks.

When Avon falls after being shot he throws his gun. Although he keeps his good arm holding the bad one, his gun manages to reconnect itself and get back in his hand.

More wobbly pursuit ships.

Cally can't get the bracelet open and has to slip it over her hand.

The fight ends in daylight and the crew teleport right after, yet the Liberator is still in orbit that night when Travis and Servalan meet.

Dayna hits the first Sarran to attack Avon in the back, but she's standing to the right of where they're fighting.

Where did Avon stash Orac and why? They didn't know anyone else was onboard when they teleported.
