Emergency!

Trainee - S2-E8

Visible crew/equipment: When Ed tackles with the possible OD at the car wash, the bulging outline of the mic transmitter is visible on the right side of Ed's shirt, above the belt. Then, when the man passes out, the outlines are visible on the sides of Roy's, Johnny's, and Ed's shirts. The mic transmitter's outline is also visible at the back of the deputy's shirt, when he hands Johnny the ID he found in the man's wallet.

Continuity mistake: Just after the paramedics witness the purse snatching, when Johnny and Ed take off after the two purse snatchers, there are four cars parked at the curb in front of the squad, but just before Johnny leaps over the white picket fence, behind him we see that there are now six parked cars in front of the squad.

Visible crew/equipment: While Roy's in the office making out the activity report for the training center, Johnny walks over to Ed who is standing beside the map, and when they're dispatched to the overdose, as they get into the squad we can see two tape marks (one white, one black) on the floor, where Johnny and Ed had been standing.

Continuity mistake: While Ed is in the field with John and Roy, it's the three of them sitting in Squad 51 when they're en route to their destinations, but in some shots of the moving squad Ed is not seated between them, such as when they respond to the cliff rescue. Additionally, after the purse snatching incident, when they head to Rampart for John's hand injury, only one person's in the squad as it backs up to receiving, even though it should be three.

Continuity mistake: When Ed chases after the possible OD into the car wash, Roy sits at the passenger side of Squad 51 to contact dispatch about the sheriff's ETA, but each time it cuts to the car wash employee the squad is empty behind him, even though Roy is still there in his closeups.

Show generally

Question: In quite a few episodes of Emergency there is a character that the doctors and other nurses call Nurse Carol. She is the older nurse with dark hair. I would say she is on at least a fourth of all episodes in all seasons yet I can not see this actress getting credited or listed as uncredited anywhere. I wonder if she was an actual nurse. Does any one know who she was. Yes there also were a couple of other actresses who played a nurse named Carol on one or two episodes and they are listed in the episode guides. She also is the patient with her arm in the cast talking to Dr. Morton in the episode 6:18 Firehouse Quintet.

Answer: On IMDB, actress Anne Schedeen is listed as playing Nurse Carol on six episodes from 1974-76.
