The Young Ones

When the bus comes off the cliff. Vyv can't be seen in the drivers seat.

Revealing : After Mike burns the stumps (aka Rik), the special patch that was set on fire on the back of Rik's overalls is visible

In some shots of Vyv holding Neil above his head you can she the wires holding him up.

This episode opens without the normal credits.

Factual error : During "Jester Balowski's Medieval Torture Hour," Balowski grabs the guys arm and bends it the way arms are supposed to bend, yet you hear a braking noise

When Rick is trying to explain where Neil has gone there is a very brief flash onscreen of a frog leaping through the air.

When Brian Damage introduces himself to Mr and Mrs Pye there is a brief flash of a white dove.

When Rick's 'Killed' Neil and his leg is doubled over, you can see Nigel Planers real leg behind it, hidden under the other one.

We learn the last gift Vyv got from his mother was a box of matches when he was eight weeks old. But according to his Mum it was a Joke.

Second appearance of Vyv's Mother.

This is the band Madness' 2nd (and last) performance for this show and they are singing Our House.

When Neil sneezes it looks like there is something in his hand to make this effect.
Also his hands leave a small gap at the end to make the green liquid come out.

Rik declares his undying love for Felicity Kendal, the excellent and very cute British actress of 'The Good Life' fame (known as 'Good neighbours'in the USA), which was a long running UK sit-com about a very middle class couple who give up their boring careers to become self sufficient (which is not so difficult when you have loads of cash, a big house and an enormous garden), much to the chagrin of their next-door neighbours, Jerry and Margot.

The Young Ones episode then turns into an episode of 'The Good Life', with the Young Ones characters tending their garden and being self-sufficient.

The Damned play Nasty in the Living Room for this episode. This is the B Side of their Thanks for the Night single which was released in May 1984. It was the last single to feature Captain Sensible. (He's the guitarist with the red beret and dark glasses).

This episode doesn't feature the normal ending credits music.

This episode has different opening credits than normal.

As Neil tells Mike and Vyvian that he's giving them risotto there's a brief flash onscreen of a skier in a yellow ski suit and a number 12 bib.

Mike says he doesn't have a watch, but in the last episode he does, he even shows it to Vyv.

When Vyv saws off the bottom of the chair. You can't see the nails sticking through Mike's legs.

In this episode Vyv says "My car only has two seats." So howcome in Summer Holiday his car can take 4 people?
