The Big Bang Theory fans spot plot hole with apartment’s window after set shake-up

THE Big Bang Theory fans spot plot hole with the apartment’s window after an episode’s set shake up.

Leonard and Sheldon’s apartment has remained unchanged throughout the 12 season run with most episodes only filming from a set number of directions.

However, one episode filmed from a different angle and now eagle-eyed fans have spotted a big hole in Sheldon’s favourite spot.

The brainiac (played by Jim Parsons) has a favourite location on the living room sofa, to the point where he’ll get mad at other characters for sitting there.

He claims it’s the perfect spot to have cross-breeze from the window and air-conditioning, while watching TV undisturbed.

But season two’s fifth episode – where Leonard and the gang hold an intervention for Sheldon – pans back to reveal the wall where one of the windows should be.

However, there’s no window near the TV – as pointed out by fans on Reddit.

One fan said: “This picture prove the plot hole which said there was a window next to their TV.”

Another added: “I though the same thing! I think what makes this angle look so wrong is that there isn’t a window at all. Every other shot, of either apartment, includes a window!”

A third remarked: “Yep, I’ve always said there aren’t windows there even though there are supposed to be (per Sheldon’s spot).”

Sheldon’s spot has come under heavy fan debate before.

One of his biggest quirks was having his ‘spot’ on the end of the sofa in the apartment he shares with Leonard.

If anyone dared sit in his ‘spot’, they would get a stern telling off, but some viewers have questioned why the character wasn’t as pedantic about having a ‘spot’ in the university canteen.

Taking to Reddit, one viewer wrote: “I was just wondering, because he has a spot at home, he was looking for his spot at Penny’s the whole time he was at her apartment in the 17th episode of the 1st season, (and) he had a spot in prison in the 16th episode of the 3rd season…

“Why do you think this is?”
