While watching Sweet Smell Of Excess today I noticed...

Compo's meant to say trampoline but says tambourine.Was it deliberate or a mistake by Bill Owen left in by Alan Bell? I suspect the latter :)
 
I suspect the latter also!
In 'What happened to the Horse' Cleggy says "Irish Jimmy" instead of 'Irish JOhnny' on one occasion which I suspect was also a mistake.
 
LOL, I love such little lapses, but especially for me they are hard to find. I noticed a few in the very first episodes by Cleggy where he was too far ahead with his lines and was about to leave something out, then had to interrupt himself and continue with the correct line. But he did it so well and smoothly that it took me several times of watching before I even noticed.
