Errors
- Del Boy says that Rodney has an 18 month suspended sentence for smoking cannabis in art college, but in "Wanted", Grandad says that Rodney had a two-year suspended sentence.
- Del Boy tells Rodney that he was born when Del was 13 years old, however in "A Losing Streak", Del told Rodney that their father Reg walked out on them on his 16th birthday, meaning Rodney would have been 3, but in "Thicker than Water", Del said that Reg walked out on them when Rodney was 5 years old. This is also retconned by Rock & Chips, which takes place in 1960, in which Del was aged 15, and Rodney was born on November of that year.

Famous quotes containing the word errors:
“Let us pardon him his hope of a vain apocalypse, and of a second coming in great triumph upon the clouds of heaven. Perhaps these were the errors of others rather than his own; and if it be true that he himself shared the general illusion, what matters it, since his dream rendered him strong against death, and sustained him in a struggle to which he might otherwise have been unequal?”
—Ernest Renan (1823–1892)
“When people put their ballots in the boxes, they are, by that act, inoculated against the feeling that the government is not theirs. They then accept, in some measure, that its errors are their errors, its aberrations their aberrations, that any revolt will be against them. It’s a remarkably shrewed and rather conservative arrangement when one thinks of it.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
“My errors are by now natural and incorrigible; but the good that worthy men do the public by making themselves imitable, I shall perhaps do by making myself evitable.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
