Episode #1.5 - S1-E5
Plot hole: Leon Hamilton is the most hated man in Sainte Marie, with over 900 people on the island conned by him. Yet exactly one person in the whole island knows how he looks like, every newspaper and website never ever published a picture of him even during the very public trial when they were trying to get their thousands of dollars back nor publish an archive picture after his death.

Episode #1.5 - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: Richard is speaking with a hurt Gordon Foster. During the conversation, the same extras pass by in different shots. For instance look at the guy with the Hawaiian purple shirt that walks behind Poole at "God, I was drunk" and "Why were you sitting with him." (00:33:20)

Episode #1.5 - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: Poole and Bordey are interviewing Gordon Foster, who lost the most money in the Paradise Beach scam.

3rd Apr 2020
Episode #1.5 - S1-E5
Other mistake: An enraged Richard tries to get the drawing board in position making a bit of a ruckus. If you look at the board, it has names and pictures on it; they are from the future, since they are part of the 6th episode, "An Unhelpful Aid", evidently filmed earlier, out of order. (00:07:25)
3rd Apr 2020
Episode #1.4 - S1-E4
Other mistake: The body has been completely immersed in the ocean, but it has streams of dried blood on the skin. Moreover, everyone talks about two shots and two wounds, one being a grazing shot that hit him on the left temple, but he has an unexplained gash to the right temple too. (00:14:30)
3rd Apr 2020
Episode #1.4 - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: When Richard and the others get back to the police station after accompanying Mrs. Talbot to check her husband's body (or lack thereof), there's a cut to the jigsaw puzzle; it is recycled from the opening of the episode, because the shadows (including those cast by the window bars) are exactly the same. (00:00:10 - 00:06:20)

Episode #1.4 - S1-E4
Other mistake: Fidel reports to his boss, at the station, that the Knights are preparing to leave their house, and Astrid is in fact wheeling the trolley and carrying bags. Somehow, Richard and the others arrive in their Defender before the two have loaded their luggage. Is the police station in their backyard? (00:40:10)
3rd Apr 2020
Episode #1.4 - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: Towards the end of the episode it is declared that the visit at the Knights' house happened just before 9:30. The light during the entire episode (the part referring to the first day, at least) is not consistent at all; when they go check the body in the prologue, the beach is sunlit like it's noon, while after the opening looks more like early morning.

Episode #1.4 - S1-E4
Other mistake: When finally Richard gets the inspiration to crack the case, he grabs the evidence bag with the phone. The label on the bag says it was processed on 2/4/2011, in contrast with the security camera video date, 3/7/2011 (not to mention Richard's alarm clock in the previous episode, 7/2). (00:40:25)
