Saga of a Star World (1) - S1-E1
Factual error: When Apollo decides he and Zac will attack the Cylons that are following them, he tells Zac to "hit your reverse thrusters and maximum braking flaps", but they aren't in an atmosphere. Brake flaps would have no effect in the vacuum of space. (00:10:30)
Suggested correction: Since the Colonial Vipers CAN fly in atmosphere and in space, that move would just be standard operating procedure and used either in space or in air. Similar to the way Navy pilots deploy a tailhook (for carrier use) when they land on runways.
Factual error: Tarrant fails Astronomy 101 here, just as Travis did in the first season. He tells the clerk, "I'm surprised you've heard of it (the FSA), if you're from another galaxy." The Tharn and his minions were not extragalactic; they were from other planets in our galaxy. (00:35:10)
Factual error: Shannon asks Leah if she knows what happened to Tom Smith - she replies that Tom has gone to university, but in the previous series Tom was only in his first year of sixth form, and it takes at least two years in the sixth form to study for the A levels required for a university place.
Suggested correction: Although normally A-levels are taken after 2 years, it is possible (and often done) to study them in one year.
Factual error: The story takes place in Galveston, Texas. The geographical area is flat, but if you look closely near the last hulk out, there are mountains in the background.
Factual error: Richard Harrison enlists the protagonist in the Allied army. He brings Maestro Bordigoni along on a tour of sorts, performing in several cities freed from the Nazis. But the headlines are just wrong; Bordigoni supposedly plays on "Thursday January 14th 1944" in Rome - it was a Friday and most importantly, Rome had not been liberated yet. Same mistake for Bologna; Bordigoni holds a concert on Friday May 8th 1944, wrong day of the week and in a city still controlled by the Axis. (02:16:40)
Reunion (1) - S2-E1
Factual error: In the scene where Bobby and Pamela arrive at their hotel In "Las Vegas," they are actually in the Hyatt Regency Dallas. You can see Reunion Tower through the windows in the atrium. (00:09:20)
