Other mistake: Calum fights off Elena's father and is chased away by the guards. Somehow he has a fight on the top of the stairs with 2 guards, but it takes in excess of 40 seconds for the previous pursuers to catch up with him. (00:04:25)

Relic Hunter (1999)
Smoking Gun - S1-E2
Character mistake: When the bad guys put the generator in front of the air vent, Nigel looks at the white smoke and pointing at it says "Carbon monoxide." Carbon monoxide is colorless, white smoke is mostly condensed vapor. (00:35:20)

Relic Hunter (1999)
Smoking Gun - S1-E2
Plot hole: Lori managed to get to the bunker through the elevator because the modern board was still replaced by the antique one. But that implies that she was able to call the elevator as normal. And if people can just call the elevator back but the normal control board has been replaced, then they wouldn't be able to use the elevator as normal, creating quite a problem in a huge hotel. Sydney earlier was not able to switch the board back to the normal one since she went out from a (mysterious?) exit/entrance, so this situation makes no sense.

Relic Hunter (1999)
Smoking Gun - S1-E2
Other mistake: Somehow, the pineapple grenade that explodes right against the room's baseboard punches a hole in a thick stone wall, but in the middle of it, preserving the base and creating a gap in a diamond shape that radiates from mid-height. (00:17:40)

Relic Hunter (1999)
Smoking Gun - S1-E2
Other mistake: The episode begins with a caption; "Chicago, 1930." In present day, through internet magic (hotel records from early 1900s somehow digitalized and publicly available!) Nigel and Sydney talk about the history (fictional, no actual historical basis) of the Roxbury. Nigel says that the original owner went out of business "after the war", then the company was sold, and the hotel refurbished, despite being, Sydney says, "only 5 years old." Later in the episode, Sydney looks at a plaque from the Chicago Historical Board that dates the elevator as "circa 1901." (00:12:35)

Relic Hunter (1999)
Continuity mistake: When Sydney talks her inexperienced assistance into a reckless climb, Nigel is leaning against he truck in the close-up, when he was not in the rest of the chat. (00:30:25)

Walk of Shame (2014)
Continuity mistake: Meghan is at the initial meeting with the TV execs. During the scene, the pens in front of the various board members change position between shots, and in the cut that follow her suggestive "hold them steady" hand-pumping, the woman with the light brown sweater is first with her hands off the table, then suddenly on it. (00:03:15)
19th Mar 2020
Relic Hunter (1999)
Continuity mistake: Sydney and Nigel are talking with Robert Blaine at the beginning of the episode. When he mentions the Nepalese people there's a close-up on them. One student wearing a white T-shirt is walking up some steps - but in the next shot he is walking down other steps situated earlier in his path. A few seconds later, another flub with an extra; Nigel stops the museum curator just as an extra wearing white clothes enters the frame, but the person is gone in the sudden cut. (00:06:25)

Star Trek: Picard (2020)
Character mistake: Dr. Agnes Jurati, one of the Federation leading scientists, is bored during the hyperspace travel, and so she chats a bit with the captain. While she gives her quirky speech, she casually mentions that "there are over 3 billion stars in our galaxy." She's not wrong, technically, but the number of stars in our galaxy is estimated between 100 and 400 billion. She is way off. (00:08:40)
Suggested correction: Two things. You state that she's not wrong, which she isn't. The fact that she chose an odd turn of phrase doesn't make it a mistake. Plus, you reference the number of 'galaxies' in our galaxy but I am guessing this is just a typo.

Charlie's Angels (2019)
Continuity mistake: The new Bosley goes for a hug after reporting Edgar's demise. You can see as the hug begins that the sunglasses are not in Elizabeth Banks ' left hand, but it's where they end up when she says that "hugs work." (00:27:50)
19th Mar 2020
Charlie's Angels (2019)
Continuity mistake: When Sabina is so shocked by the explosion that she lets go the battered villain who is very slowly walking away from it, in the overhead shot the bike is in a different spot (almost entirely into the driveable section of the road). More importantly, said villain is nowhere to be seen already, but he detonated the bomb at distance from the bike, 2 of the large tiles away from it, with each tile taking at least 3-4 of his dragged steps. He should still be there. (00:25:55)

Charlie's Angels (2019)
Continuity mistake: While Jane, ejected from the back of the car, is underwater trying to open the car door (for some reason), Kristen Stewart 'stunt double races with her bike towards the baddie. She is driving very close to the SUV and past it, but when we see the bike slide down the street the car is at distance; it's further down the road and it's nowhere as close to the smooth part of the pavement as it is in the approaching shot. (00:25:30)
19th Mar 2020
Charlie's Angels (2019)
Continuity mistake: The standoff between the evil hipster and the fake waitress ends because of the safety mechanism of the gun; the guy tilts the gun to the side to check what is going on in two separate shots. (00:21:50)
19th Mar 2020
Charlie's Angels (2019)
Continuity mistake: The duel between Jane and the deadly hipster in Hamburg has a moment of standoff when he blocks the table she kicked towards him, and they both look at the guns on the floor. Notice how in that shot the table is at distance from the chairs, but in the overhead shot that follows it is really close, to the point that the bowl that Jane knocked over is on the chair. (00:21:10)

Death in Paradise (2011)
Episode #1.3 - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: In the scene at Catherine's cafe, the lid on Richard's plastic bottle is off, on, off again. In the same part of the scene, the mug changes position between shots - its handle is pointing away from Richard or towards him, and when they ask him about voodoo, it even is alternatively in his hand or on the table depending on the angle, back and forth several times. (00:17:00)

Death in Paradise (2011)
Episode #1.3 - S1-E3
Other mistake: Inside Angelique Morel's residence, Camille spots an altar with pictures of an unnamed girl and says "This must be Angelique's daughter, Delilah." They went straight to the murder scene and from there to that shack, without time to consult files. Nobody mentioned the name of the daughter.

Death in Paradise (2011)
Episode #1.2 - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: In the ending, Camille throws her bag in the sand; between shots said bag is in entirely different spots and with the strap first on the left, then on the right. (00:50:10)
19th Mar 2020
Death in Paradise (2011)
Episode #1.2 - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Camille and Richard are interrogating the victim's parents. The scene begins and the dad has both hands joined, fingers stretched out. Next shot and he has fingers entwined and only a second later he stretches them to assume the correct position. (00:14:15)
19th Mar 2020
Death in Paradise (2011)
Episode #1.2 - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Richard is walking through the market fending off the various street vendors. There's a POV shot ending with a woman wearing a headscarf that offers him something that "looks absolutely delicious." In the following shot Richard is still dodging the woman, who gives way to him moving aside in an entirely different way. (00:02:05)
19th Mar 2020
Death in Paradise (2011)
Episode #1.1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Richard just closed the shack leaving the pet lizard behind, and is talking to the Commissioner who roped him into staying. Fidel and Dwayne are looking at them; the lighting in close-up differs noticeably from the wider angle (check out of the shadow on Dwayne's arm and on the wall). (00:50:35)
