Continuity errors and mistakes

There are two instances of a happy accident. The first involved a giant hanging five-foot carrot. The Trio was attempting to remove the carrot and it accidentally wacked Foggy. Totally unintended, but they left it in. The second took place in a scene where Wesley was towing this beat-up car. There was no actual seat in this car, so Wesley put a small sofa for the Trio to sit upon; Cleggy was to steer. Wesley went around a corner and the sofa with the Trio gently slid off the car. Totally unintended but they left it in.
 
In " Enter the finger" all 3 martial arts "experts" are wearing the belt knotted over the right hip, this is usually worn in the middle of the stomach so if you are thrown or fall forwards and land face down it is absorbed by the stomach, a bit pedantic perhaps?, or maybe that is the joke?
 
In The Changing Face of Rural Blamire in the last scenes where Oswald P Green is at the hotel you see him and another man walk out of the room. If you look at the door frame it is damaged. It cuts to Blamire then goes back to Green and co and the door frame is magically repaired.
I hope I have got that right. It has been a while since I watched the episode but it has always stuck in my mind.
 
As the early episodes are being screened currently in UK I am catching up on missed episodes. In "Jubilee" the trio are at vicars house and Clegg comes in and slams the door, pulling the door knob off, and at the same time the wall to his left shakes, and the mirror on the wall wobbles!, plus one nice touch left in, in a later scene , just before camera pulls away from Clegg who is rubbing his finger on his lips, Peter Sallis seems to break character and start to smile then scene is cut, nice to see there was fun on the set, both intentionally and unintentionally.
 
Not strictly continuity error, but in Sid's Cafe the machines on the wall near the counter change function, in one episode it is a chewing gum dispenser, by the next episode it has gone to be replaced with something else, then 3 episodes in it is replaced by a blue dispensing machine I realise the episodes are not in real time but, it seems odd the whole machine would be changed so frequently?
 
I know this has been addressed on another thread, but recently Crusher escorts the team out of the cafe as it is full, two episodes later he appears from behind the counter and the team do not know him!, plus the cafe which was freshly renovated in white paint is now back to a grey finish when Crusher appears.
