Continuity mistake: When Jack speaks to Florence about his ambiguous intention to spend some quality time with the Commissioner, he changes position in between shots, with his excited fist raised while his left hand disappears from sight. (00:15:10)

Death in Paradise (2011)
Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5
Continuity mistake: Uncharacteristically, Commissioner Selwyn Patterson joins the police investigation, at least at the very beginning. He takes his jacket off, and his tie reaches slightly below the belt of his pants. When he finds the body, the tie is a couple inches above the belt. Technically he is off-screen for what amounts of few minutes of plot, but it'd be ridiculous to picture him undoing his tie and making a tighter knot while he's in the middle of a search in the woods - he'd have just removed the tie and pocketed it entirely if it was being a nuisance.

Death in Paradise (2011)
Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, Darlene asks, and Jack turns to point with his cane where Dwayne went. Next shot and seen from behind Jack never moved, he's facing ahead and left. (00:01:45)

Death in Paradise (2011)
Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5
Continuity mistake: When Jack and Florence talk to Hugh, Florence's top when she is shot from behind has the two straps on her left shoulder about one inch apart, while they are joined close in the front views. The mistake goes on throughout the whole scene. (00:32:50)

Death in Paradise (2011)
Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5

Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5
Continuity mistake: During her interrogation, Charlotte Hamilton walks back to the table with a stronger drink. Before she sits down, the lemonade jug has more liquid in it than in the shots before and after. (00:26:45)

Death in Paradise (2011)
Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5
Continuity mistake: When the police visit the club treasurer Charlotte Hamilton, in the opening wide shot Jack's tie curves sharply because of the wind, but before the cut the wind breaks and the tie gets down. However in the next shot his tie is all the way windblown. Likewise, Charlotte's bang in that same shot is messy and upturned, but is back to normal in the next one. (00:25:35)

Death in Paradise (2011)
Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5
Continuity mistake: Jack and Florence are interrogating the instructor Adam Warner at the club. During the scene there are transitions between frontal views of the suspect and wide shots of the whole terrace with everyone sitting. Each time, Rory Fleck Byrne's hand switches place, being on the armrest in one shot, on the thigh in the next, etc. (00:18:25)

Death in Paradise (2011)
Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5
Continuity mistake: Officer J.P. Hooper hands DS Florence Cassell the item found in the glove box. The opening of the evidence bag flops at the bottom, but in the close-up, when she says that it's probably expensive, she holds the plastic flap against her palm, sideways. (00:12:25)

Death in Paradise (2011)
The Healer - S7-E4
Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode, Dwayne apologizes to Darlene. She puts a hand on his chest telling him he has just one more chance. The hand changes position in the next couple of cuts. (00:50:55)

Death in Paradise (2011)
The Healer - S7-E4
Continuity mistake: Jack inspecting the box in the victim's house is holding the old picture with his hand positioned on the corner/side in close-up, but it was in the middle of the bottom side when he picked it up. And another dramatic change happens in the cut that follows once he reads the names. (00:18:30)

Death in Paradise (2011)
The Healer - S7-E4
Continuity mistake: When at the beginning of the episode Pastor Steadman King is holding brother Marius to heal him with faith, he's holding him by the arms, the wrists, the palms, in a continuous jump between cuts. (00:01:30)

The Healer - S7-E4
Continuity mistake: When Jack is inspecting the cup finding a sharp and unpleasant scent, Florence's hand changes position on the writing pad (stops writing and lowers the pen, vertical pen, horizontal pen) between shots. (00:07:00)
13th Mar 2020
Death in Paradise (2011)
Continuity mistake: During the toast, Gilly White staggers for a moment. As different camera angles alternate, she is holding the champagne glass either sticking a finger out or not. (00:01:45)
13th Mar 2020
Death in Paradise (2011)
Continuity mistake: Dwayne's bushy cover has been blown, so he nonchalantly walks out and greets the stern-looking Audrey. He opens his arms when he says her name, but in the reverse shot he repeats the movement, as he was still pretending to scribble on his pad. (00:14:00)

13th Mar 2020
Star Trek: Picard (2020)
The End Is the Beginning - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: Picard, panting after the walk through Vasquez Rocks, tells Raffi he's sorry. Michelle Hurd in the first close-up and wide shot has her hand on her knee, with the arm coming up from the inside leg. In the close-up that follows, she is leaning her face on her hand as it comes up from the other side of the leg. From then on her head position changes inconsistently as well. (00:14:05)
