Episode #2.3 - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: When Commissioner Selwyn Patterson makes his surprise appearance at the lobby, Camille turns towards him, fully; head and body. In the next shot, she only turned her head around and her body is still towards Richard. (00:03:40)

Episode #2.3 - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: The corpse is floating with her hair going all the way towards her right when she is face down, but in the close-ups with the underwater camera her hair is floating evenly at both sides of her face. (00:02:00)

Episode #2.2 - S2-E2

Character mistake: The prescription pills are labeled "Sister Therese", but Therese is not a nun yet (in the credits of the episode itself she is the one not labeled as such, but just by her name). (00:44:50)

Episode #2.2 - S2-E2

Continuity mistake: In her passionate defense, Sister Anne's veil changes position throughout the scene - windy as it is, keeping strict continuity would have been practically impossible. (00:40:00)

Episode #2.2 - S2-E2

Other mistake: Sister Marguerite throughout the whole episode is wearing not very nun-like quantities of lipstick and mascara - especially considering that the head nun is depicted as strict and frowning upon things like chewing-gum.

Episode #2.2 - S2-E2

Continuity mistake: Sister Marguerite is mending the bike when Dwayne arrives. She halts with both hands the wheel's rotation, but in the next shot the wheel is spinning again. (00:34:20)

Episode #2.2 - S2-E2

Continuity mistake: Interviewing Laura Masters, Daryl Dexter's business partner, she makes a joke about imported champagne; the level of champagne in the flute changes between shots, from full above her thumb, to an inch below it. She is also sitting back with the glass in hand when she had just put it down and was leaning forward earlier. (00:28:05)

Episode #2.2 - S2-E2

Continuity mistake: When Richard tells Camille about the nightmares of Sister Geoff Capes he still has, he is shaking his right fist, which becomes the left at the cut. (00:17:40)

Episode #2.2 - S2-E2

Continuity mistake: When Camille holds the list with the mysterious names and numbers, she holds it with the left hand at the very top of it in close-up, while it's much lower in the shots before and after. (00:14:10)

Episode #2.2 - S2-E2

Continuity mistake: The detectives are inside Father John's office for his interview. First time the clock is fully in frame, it's 8:20. When Richard exposits for the audience what a postulant nun is, it's 8:17, and it stays the same when Richard speaks again in the same position, asking the priest about anything suspicious happening. When Sister Anne arrives moments later, the clock jumped to 8:26. When she makes her exit, we're back at 8:17. (00:05:00)

Episode #2.2 - S2-E2

Character mistake: Throughout the episode, multiple times members of the clergy themselves talk about Therese not having yet received "holy orders." She would never have, considering that nuns only take "vows", the former are just for men.

Episode #1.6 - S1-E6

Other mistake: The married couple are penned down on the whiteboard as Alex and Phil Owens, but in the episode credits their last name is Owen. (00:25:45 - 00:52:00)

Episode #2.1 - S2-E1

Plot hole: The killer slices a big man in the back, plunges a giant machete through his body, but does not get a single speck of blood on their immaculate clothes during the ordeal.

Episode #2.1 - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: Richard brought Camille to the mill and entrusted his bag to her. As he thinks out loud, he grabs a big iron hammer. Camille changes position moving her hand from the top of the bag to the bottom, and does it again in the close-up a moment later. A few shots later she suddenly is holding the bag by the top again (when he mentions "walking down the track"). (00:34:15)

Sammo

Episode #2.1 - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When Richard gets the proper inspiration to solve the murder thanks to the ribbon Camille dropped on his desk, ribbon and paper are in positions entirely different and under a completely different lighting between close-up and the shot when he picks the ribbon up. (00:33:20)

Sammo

Episode #2.1 - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: After Camille shut everyone up with her whistle, Richard says "We'd like to speak with Miss Neville." She has her arms folded, but they are down her sides in the reverse shot. (00:30:00)

Sammo

Episode #2.1 - S2-E1

Revealing mistake: Richard at home is reading a book on slavery. An English book, at least the cover and the big header of the first internal page are in English, and about slavery. But a quick peek before the cut easily reveals that the book is written in French and talks about cocktails. (00:28:10)
