Warning: spoilers ahead for The Last of Us.
Two errors spotted in The Last of Us episode 6 have seemingly been fixed by HBO after they were pointed out by eagle-eyed viewers on social media.
The TV show, based on the video game series of the same name, has garnered rave reviews since its launch, with Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey being lauded by longtime fans and newcomers alike.
Last week when episode 6 came out, while audiences were left in awe by the powerful, emotionally hard-hitting performances by the cast, some couldn’t help but spot a couple of blunders accidentally left in the final cut.
At one point, when Joel and Ellie were walking across a bridge, people who were believed to be members of the film crew could be seen on the left hand side, while during another scene, a person’s fingers could be seen underneath the horse Shimmer’s chin.
It’s been claimed that in the US, HBO has rectified the slip-ups, and so they can no longer be seen when viewers go back to watch the episodes.
However, on Sky’s catch-up platform, the figures in the background of the aerial shot and the hand underneath the horse’s mouth are still visible.
The change was spotted by the Twitter account @NaughtyDogWorld, a fansite for Naughty Dog, the company that developed the video game.
The account shared screengrabs of the moments in question with the alterations having already been made ahead of the seventh episode’s release.
Several people responded by admitting that they hadn’t even realised the mistakes in the first place.
‘I didn’t notice either of these until i saw ppl talking about it,’ one person tweeted, while another wrote: ‘The crazy thing is I didn’t even see it the first time.’
It just goes to show how engrossing The Last of Us is that the gaffes passed so many people by!
In the upcoming seventh episode of the series, viewers will finally get to meet Ellie’s best friend Riley (Storm Reid) as the story explores her past.
Sorry, this video isn't available any more.
In The Last of US, the world has been ravaged by a fungal infection called Cordyceps, which turns those who have been infected into monstrous creatures who can spread the illness to others.
Ellie is immune, and so Joel embarks on a treacherous journey to smuggle her across the US in the hope that she might be the key to a cure.
Metro.co.uk has contacted HBO for comment.
