Death in Paradise (2011)

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)

Death in Paradise (2011)

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)

Death in Paradise (2011)

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.

Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: To round up the first interview, Humphrey gets up and asks where everyone was when the death occurred. In the wider angle he is holding the slip of paper in hand, which he didn't have standing up. (00:11:25)

Death in Paradise (2011)

Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: Throughout the whole first interview with the band, the pretentious guitarist, co-songwriter and whatnot (Pete Thunders) keeps having different positions leaning against the door or not, and his beer bottle switches hand repeatedly for no reason. If sometimes that is technically possible (but unlikely) due to brief cutaway shots, other times it is not (such as when Vince Thuram says "this is my place). (00:09:00)

Saint Seiya: Awakening

Other mistake: The standard attack of Unicorn Jabu is a spinning hook kick. The name of the movie in the menu is Unicorn Kick, and the voice actor even screams it; "Unicorn kikku." So, of course, the pop-up text that appears when the blow connects is..."Unicorn Fist." It's a kick.

Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: Introducing the various members of the music crew, Florence asks who the last member is. Vince Thuram, the producer, answers, but in the meantime there's been a cut, and the manager who had both hands in her lap, is now sitting with one hand behind, on the pillow. (00:09:55)

Death in Paradise (2011)

Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: Before the phone rings, the new DS asks "And you?" to the goofy inspector, who is rubbing his foot with his wet sock in the left hand. Cut, and he's rubbing it with both hands all of a sudden. Florence's hands also equally suddenly go from above to below the belt. (00:04:30)

Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: In the intro, Cheryl Moore says "We are going to break America"; her arms are raised, and yet mid-sentence in a cut when she's just partially in frame, she has them low. (00:01:10)

Death in Paradise (2011)

Episode #4.4 - S4-E4

Other mistake: On the first day of investigations, Florence says that "two days ago" the victim withdrew a large sum of money. A CCTV shot is shown later in the episode, establishing that day as March 9th 2015 - remarkably consistent with the date of the previous episode and the coroner's report. So it is the 11th, and the investigation concludes on the 12th, a Thursday. However, at the end of the episode, Dwayne says that it's Saturday.
