Factual error: At Eagle's Nest, Victoria removes a bullet from Frank's arm and drops it in a glass of water. After this point, the blood on the bullet doesn't seem to make the water change color. Even if it's vodka, the liquid should still go partly red. (00:57:50)

Continuity mistake: In the Russian Embassy, Frank meets up with Ivan. During this scene, Ivan opens a bottle of vodka. In the shot after Ivan says "As we get older, things seem less important", it is visible that the bottle is filled to the top. He then takes out two shot glasses and fills the two of them up with vodka for both him and Frank. When Igor says "To Igor. The Butcher", we can see that the level of vodka has gone down by a far smaller amount than two shots' worth. (00:45:10)

Continuity mistake: At the airport, Sarah says "She has a camera in her purse, we have to kill her?" As soon as the camera stops panning around, Marvin is visible in the far background holding the pig teddy with the pig's legs facing the two. The shot then cuts to a close-up of Marvin. In this close-up, the pig teddy's legs are now facing the opposite direction. (00:37:00)

Continuity mistake: When Frank meets Sarah in the flesh for the first time, she throws numerous items at him. When she picks up a candle holder and throws the candles at him, a third of one of the candles remains stuck to the holder. After Frank tells Sarah, that people are trying to kill them, Sarah replies "Why would anyone want to kill me?" In this shot, the third of the candle is currently on the right hand side of the candle holder. Then when Sarah says "Why?" after Frank says they've been listening to their conversations, the third of the candle is now on the left side of the candle holder. (00:12:05)

Continuity mistake: After Frank injects the assassin, the syringe injected into his neck is horizontal. However, when one of the assassins shoots a grenade inside, the same assassin that Frank injected now has the syringe in a vertical position. Frank never moved the syringe, nor could anyone else since they were dead. (00:08:00 - 00:09:30)

The Builders - S1-E2

Revealing mistake: When Basil smashes Manuel against the wall where the dining room is meant to be, we can see it is made out of cardboard. Notice how it begins to fall off, even though it is meant to be sealed and covered in wallpaper. (00:16:05)

Suggested correction: Perhaps this was due to O'Reilly's shoddy workmanship?

You could say that but Fawlty towers had wobbly sets all the time. I would say this would be covered under "mistakes".

The_Iceman

Codswallop. O'Reilly manages to do a half decent job. This is just a wobbly set.

Ssiscool

Where is the 'codswallop' as you so euphemistically put it? To me it looks like O'Reilly cut corners by shoddily placing a sheet of plasterboard in the doorway without attaching it well then shoddily wallpapering over it. Hence the reason for it falling out.

The Shooting Star - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When Haddock says "There they are" after the rescue, he is standing next to Professor Fossil and they are both standing at the end of the ship. As everyone starts cheering, they are standing somewhere near the middle of the ship and a scientist has suddenly appeared next to them. (00:20:30)

Audio problem: Tintin places part of the meteorite on the raft. When it lands, it makes a sound as if it landed on a wooden floor. The raft is made of plastic and has air in it. Not the landing sound you'd expect. (00:20:15)
