Goofs
- The robots open the back doors of the van from the inside even though there are clearly no doors on the inside. In fact the button one of them presses is on the outside.
- When Pat is chasing the robots, Ted and P.C. Selby are frozen in place.
- When Pat says "You're very welcome." to Dorothy, Ted's Lorry has moved back slightly.
- P.C. Selby is wearing his old helmet when he, Pat and Ted are at the station in Pencaster, even though he had packed it away in the box which his new one was delivered in at the beginning.
- We first see Sara and Nisha at the market in Pencaster whilst the robots are causing havoc around the square before rushing onto the Pencaster Flyer at the station, but when the robots get off the train in Greendale, Sara and Nisha are suddenly there working in the station cafe.
- Nisha and Sara are amused and disbelieving about the prospect of seeing robots in Greendale even though they just saw two back in Pencaster.
- Nikhil is with Nisha and Sara in Greendale, but is not with them when they are previously in Pencaster.
- Ben is standing outside the sorting office when Pat returns with the robots, but not in the previous shot.
