In Dates, the cafe is the one seen in the 1982 episode "The Long Legs Of The Law" but in the 1985 Christmas Special "To Hull and Back" it is a completely different cafe, and the same applies with "A Royal Flush", then in Dates, it goes back to the old cafe. Make your mind up Sid where you want to base your cafe.

In Dates, when del first hands over his flowers to raquel, we see that they are a fairly big bunch and they are mainly the same colour, but later on when we are in her flat they have changed completely in size and their colour and we know they are the same flowers because she even says they are.

In Dates, The police station in this episode is the same building the BBC used for the bank in the 1984 Young Ones episode 'Summer Holiday'.

In Dates, At the end of the episode when Raquel leaves carrying her suitcase, it's the same house Vimal lived at in "Cash and Curry".

In Dates, When the police question Del just before he leaves go to Raquels, he thinks that Albert has set him up.There is a brief shot of the police car parked outside.Behind it is Dels van.There is no way the police car could park there with the van being right behind it so the van must have been parked there after the police car.

In Dates, regarding the joke ordering a bum and rack and being lucky not to have ordered a Bucks Fizz - was also used in a Royal Flush!.

In Dates, the scene where Rodney is speeding away from the people in the red car with Nervous Nerys, Rodney dodges the car in front and driving over the cones while going through traffic lights you can see a stunt man driving the van with a inflatable doll ment to be Nerys.

In Dates, look at the scene where Rodney and nerys are in the van zooming over the hill geting chased my the yobs look closely you can see a ramp where the stunt man went over, just before they took off.

In Dates, at the beginning when Mike and Boycie are in the pub, Mike is reading a paper.If you look at the back page headline you'll see it reads"HOWDY PARTNER". Later in the episode,weeks later,when Del meets Raquel in Sid's cafe he is reading the same paper.

In Dates, when Rodney picks up Nervous Nerris in the van you see him taking a puff from his roll-up, but clearly it is not lit, there is no smoke to be seen until the scene outside the van when stage smoke wafts across the camera.

In Dates, When Del is first seen leaving the nags head to see Trigger with a girl, the front of the nags head has no turning to the right of the pub. But when he is taken away by the police car later on, they come out of the back of the pub & down a street on the right of the nags head...fast road works!
