One Watson, One Holmes - S3-E19
Factual error: In the scene in the hospital, the guy who drove his motorbike into a van has an IV canula in his right hand, but the IV pole and the IV bag are on the left side of the bed, which means the IV line has to be long enough to go up to the bedhead, then behind the bedhead and then up to the bag, leaving no way to check for air bubbles.

Continuity mistake: When Detective Bell receives a phone call from Gregson in Holmes' house, he rushes upstairs and bangs on the bathroom door - Sherlock is inside, he said he wanted a shower. Bell rattles the handle, but finds the door locked, so he kicks the door in. But Sherlock didn't lock the door. The lock is above the handle and Sherlock did not use it.

Continuity mistake: The brownstone has two front doors, an outer door and an inner door. In scenes before this one and after this one, the outer door is made of wood and the inner door has a large glass panel, at the top, but in this episode the outer door has a large glass panel, at the top, so they can see who it is before opening the door.

Chosen answer: M broke into the brownstone and left a note. Holmes deduced he was staying at a high-class hotel from the soap scent on the note, and gave a picture from a hidden camera to his "irregulars" on the street to stake out hotels. One of them saw him, so Holmes followed him to his next intended victim and knocked him unconscious with a baton.
