The Cold - S2-E1

Audio problem: The zombie chasing the man gets tangled on a wire fence and gets shot in the head. When the bullet impacts his skull he makes a grunting pain noise just like everybody else who gets shots in movies makes the same grunt. First of all zombies don't feel, so how can he express pain, and secondly when people get shot and die they don't grunt, they drop dead. (00:09:30 - 00:10:00)

The Lost Mine - S2-E3

Audio problem: There's a bit of a mix-up in the codenames of the cars who chase Reggie Dyer. Unit 7 is the first to give chase and it is identified by its crew with the photographer. Then Unit 8 intercepts at the rendez-vous point. Check the license plate; FVW 49. Japp mentions a "unit 10" that is not shown. Later in Chinatown, Japp calls for the other cars, and "Car 8" responds, but its license plate is now YD 8501 and it's another car model. Unit 10 is again not shown. They dubbed in the wrong voiceover, they should have kept offscreen the second response by Unit 8 and made it Unit 10's.

Pay in Pain - S1-E7

Audio problem: When Mackey is interrogating Leon the camera is pointed at Mackey as he asks Leon "why are you and the other shop owners all telling the same lie?"
