Death in Paradise (2011)

Episode #4.6 - S4-E6

Revealing mistake: Florence passes a mug of coffee to her boss, who goes on to sit in his chair and have a tragic overacting accident. However, when things were still normal and he merely approached the desk, you could see Florence already stop drinking and frown preoccupied before anything bad happened. (00:06:10)

Episode #4.6 - S4-E6

Continuity mistake: First shot right after the opening theme; Dwayne is holding the Saint Marie Times and his hand is on the box above what we see in close-up is an article about the recession. In that close-up though, his hand is much, much lower on the page. (00:05:00)

Death in Paradise (2011)

Episode #4.6 - S4-E6

Continuity mistake: The victim is discovered. She is holding her phone in close-up in a direction that seconds the fingers, but in the aerial shot the phone comes in from the opposite direction, left to right. (00:04:25)

Death in Paradise (2011)

Episode #4.6 - S4-E6

Continuity mistake: In the establishing shot of the serve of the matchpoint, the corner of the field is free from shadows and the people standing in the opposite corner cast long shadows. In the following shots, both these conditions change. (00:00:20)

Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: When Daisy Buttercup tells the investigators that Stevie ended the relationship, she plays with his necklace in the front views using both hands - but just one hand as in the rest of the scene when she is from 3/4 behind. (00:38:45)

Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: Humphrey is holding the copy of the artwork of the reissued album. Overwhelmed by his staff's objections, he goes to his desk and crashes in his chair. His hand is on the shorter, longer, shorter side of the paper sheet, a change for each cut. (00:35:40)

Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: At the Bullet Bar, JP tells Dwayne he's not a big drinker. He has his thumbpad on the edge of the glass in great evidence in the first and third shot, and lower in the intermediate one. (00:27:05)

Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: During the scene with the guitarist in the bar, his glass is more full or less full between shots - easy to tell when in some shots the ice cubes pop on the surface and in others they have melted completely. (00:22:25)

Death in Paradise (2011)

Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the scene with Pete Thunders in a bar - when they ask him about the loss caused by the sponsor defamation - a guy in a yellow tee walks out of the bar. At the end of the scene, when Florence gets a phone call, the same guy makes his exit stage right again. (00:21:45 - 00:23:30)

Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: JP shows Goodman what he found; in the cut before the moment he presses the button. Humphrey suddenly has his fingers touching his lips, while he had both hands down an instant before. (00:19:55)

Death in Paradise (2011)

Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Factual error: Humphrey mentions that the fire that destroyed the recording studio happened in July 1991. The first page of the Saint Marie Times carrying the news though has Thursday 12th as a date; in July 1991, the 12th was a Friday. (00:16:25 - 00:16:55)

Death in Paradise (2011)

Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Revealing mistake: Florence prints the first page from the Saint Marie newspaper, from a generic "Thursday 12th"; the whole first page is taken by the news of the fire destroying the recording studio...but half of the article talks about "the world's largest message in a bottle", instead. (00:16:25)

Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: After checking out the planters, Humphrey walks along the pool saying the killer "covered their tracks by staging the scene", and goes on through an editing cut. Florence had both hands together in the first shot, in the second she's listening with her hand under her chin. (00:12:25)

Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: When Dwayne says that due to the fence, the only way in is through the villa, Goodman has suddenly the hand in his pocket in the cut mid-sentence. (00:11:50)

Other mistake: When the protagonist defeats Mature ("Rugal's secretary") in the text description, there's a description; "Noah stated with an air of pride", etc. The text starts with a parenthesis that never closes.

Character mistake: In KOF 95 1-1, the "man with a staff" speaks to the "man covering his face" and Iori, answering the question "I was called here...but by who?" with a rather questionable "I am called you, Kisaragi."

Sammo

Plot hole: In the prologue of King of Fighters 95, Iori Yagami acts surprised by the presence of Kyo Kusanagi and vows to participate to the tournament, in fact the rest of the intro is about how he gets roped into the tournament by surprise thanks to Geese's manipulations. But as he delivers those first lines, behind him there's a giant poster supposedly celebrating the past edition, with Iori himself - who was not even in tournament - fighting against Kyo.

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In the finale of the KOF94 section, Rugal Bernstein's cybernetic eye switches from right to left between cinematic drawn cutscene and in-world ones.
