In Yuppy Love, Del clearly asks Rodney for a lift home from the wine bar. However Rodney pushes Del back into the wine bar where it turns out Del has drinks sitting waiting for him. Why would he have ordered drinks when he was outside wanting to go home?


In Yuppy Love, Del says that they have been living in the flat since 1962 and Rodney was born in it. And in that series, Rodney was 26 and his birthday is revealed as November 2nd so he was born in 1962, whereas in The Yellow Peril (1982) it says on Del and Rodders mum's gravestone that she died in March 1964. and throughout the series Rodney says that he was 5 when his mum died, so that would make him 1 1/2 when his mum died. So if Rodney says he was 5 in March 1964 when his mum died, shouldnt he have been born on November 2nd, 1958 which would have made him 5 when his mum died. Or did he age 5 years in just a year and a half.


In Yuppy Love, As Rodney leaves the adult education centre and Del shouts over that he waited with the car to give him a lift home, he was obviously ready to go home. Yet Rodney pushes Del back down to the Wine Bar he has just left and Del then sais, have some of this wine & fizzy water I have justed ordered. There is a full bottle of red wine on the bar that belongs to Del. Would he have really gone home and left a full bottle of wine on the bar?.


In Yuppy Love, Rodney throws away the Filo fax, yet in the program after, Danger uxd he has the identical filo fax.


In Yuppy Love, just after Cassandra gives Rodney his coat back, she leaves the building. As she does, you can just see Rodney in the reflection in the door. He's waiting to come out of the building!


In Yuppy Love, Rodney never proposes to Cassandra. Rodney just walks up to her. But in the original he chats to her and says"D'ya wanna dance, y'know, with me."?


In Yuppy Love, when Rodney starts to chase Del around the table near the end,Del-Boy starts corpsing during the line 'Now stop it!'Even so,the producers decided to leave it in.


In Yuppy Love, When Rodney is going to his evening class...He is wearing a BLACK suit...He attends class then tells Del he isn't going back to the flat ("not with Albert back there")...He goes to the club instead...Here, he meets Cassandra and she drops him home in the rain...When he comes home he is wearing a soaking GREY suit.


In Yuppy Love, Rodders makes a bet with Jevon and Mickey Pearce. Jevon states that Rodney is £5 short. Clearly Rodney finds change in his trousers and puts the change in Mickeys hat. When later collecting the money off Mickeys head the change is not to be seen.


In Yuppy Love, when Cassandra approaches Rodney at night school (to swap coats), Rodney introduces himself to her. Then she returns his coat to him...When he asks how she knew it was his...She replies "Its got your name written on it"...But how did she know his name when he just introduced himself to her?...And the fact that the whole point of approaching him was to swap coats?


In Yuppy Love, they say that Rodney lives on "a Nyere estate" this means that this is not a singular expression, yet in "Hole In One" he clearly says he lives on Dockside Estate.


In Yuppy Love, the timings of things are all wrong. How on earth can Rodney go to evening class, then to theYuppy Bar, then to the club where he meets Cassandra, then walk home in the time space? When he gets home Del says 'Cassandra left her number and said to ring her before 12 o'clock'. There is no way all that could have taken place. Also, Del says that Mickey Pearce came into the Riverside Club at last Knockins', which is surely after 12 o'clock, and in the Yuppy Bar Trig says to Del 'You better chat those birds up soon it's nearly closing time'. So the Yuppy Bar must close at 10.30, they race over to the riverside before it closes at 11.30 and home at least 10 minutes before 12! And Del has been at home for 10 minutes before Rodney comes in!!!Sorry if that's a bit confusing, but there's definitely flaws somewhere.
