The Adventure of the Clapham Cook - S1-E1
Hastings: It's a wonderful day. Just fill your lungs with that air!
Poirot: No, my poor friend, this sort of air is intended for birds and little furry things. The lungs of Hercule Poirot demand something more substantial: the good air of the town! (00:26:00)

Continuity mistake: Allnut is having his gin waving the bottle under Rose's nose; as he asks "You're gonna have one, Miss?" there's a close-up of Katharine Hepburn' holding the handkerchief to her face, unlike the previous and following shot. (00:29:30)
21st Sep 2019
Visible crew/equipment: Look closely the bottom of the screen when Rose screams seeing the leeches on Charlie: some black piece of equipment (it's not a stain on film or lens) pops up slightly and hovers a little before going out of frame again. (01:17:50)
21st Sep 2019
Continuity mistake: Anna walks up to Uncle Stepan holding a glass. She holds it with just her left hand in the wider shot, becoming two in the following, across the sentence "You have an uncle, Anna, who doesn't steal things from the dead." (00:06:00)
21st Sep 2019
Revealing mistake: The Germans burn the whole village and deport the natives...who don't seem all that concerned. You can spot some being rather casual about it, and smile as they get herded away - like the woman in the blue dress. (00:12:40)
21st Sep 2019
Revealing mistake: Rick has taken over the wheel from Muffy: in one of the POV shots of the high speed car run down the streets of Detroit, a perfectly good view of Vancouver's Harbour Centre building appears at the end of the road. (00:39:05)
21st Sep 2019
Character mistake: At the very end of the movie, Jack Lemmon begins dealing cards for the gin rummy, but he deals about 14 cards before the fade to black, in a 10 cards game. (01:59:45)
21st Sep 2019
Continuity mistake: Zombie Iggy Pop approaches the counter to drink some coffee, and you can see a clock on the wall: it's approx 10:10. But as the zombies leave the diner, through the windows you can see the clock: it's now 9:25. (00:30:45 - 00:31:20)
21st Sep 2019
Revealing mistake: Eddie palms to the face one of the fake feds and puts him in a wristlock, turning the weapon against him and shoots him in the chest. The bad guy dies without a hole in his jacket from this point-blank hit. (01:09:45)
21st Sep 2019
Revealing mistake: When the zombie crawls into the hardware store breaking through the bottom part of the barricade, you can already see on the wood plank the line where the wood is supposed to snap in half. (01:05:20)
21st Sep 2019
Continuity mistake: In the motel room, Jack mentions "that Harry Potter guy at the gas station." Zoe's right hand is just below the left wrist. Reverse shot, and it's down at elbow level. (00:56:35)
21st Sep 2019
Visible crew/equipment: At the gas stop, Zoe picks up the Sturgill Simpson CD, and the owner once more pitches it ("That's a really good CD"). There's a boom mic at the top left corner of the screen. (00:41:58)
21st Sep 2019
Continuity mistake: When the corrupt FBI agent holds Rick at gunpoint, he has his left hand on his shoulder in the two waist shots, but not so in the close-up of Gibson between them. (01:39:10)
21st Sep 2019
Continuity mistake: At the diner, Farmer Frank is asked why he thinks Hermit Bob was the chicken thief. He puts the coffee mug down, but he already did that in the previous shot. (00:10:40)
21st Sep 2019
Continuity mistake: In front of the motel, Zack pulls the pink suitcase out of the trunk; he does it with Jack holding the bag high up, or all the way down in the second shot. (00:46:00)
21st Sep 2019
Character mistake: Mr. Lucas got himself in an embarrassing situation 'straightening the seams' of Mrs. Slocombe. Humphries passes by saving him by telling him that Mr. Granger wanted to talk to him, but he does it by saying "Griffin wants you." Wrong name. (00:07:45)
21st Sep 2019
Other mistake: In Braham Mansion, one of the most important clue books of the game (without that hint it's impossible to finish the game) is mistranslated, since "Wait for a soul with a Red Crystal on Deborah Cliff" should have been instead "Wait for the wind." It might be a second-hand translation from a language with a similar word that works for both "soul" and" wind."
21st Sep 2019
Continuity mistake: When Owen looks down Bourbon Street the day after he found the snowglobe, there are no cars parked on the opposite side of the road and two women are walking on that sidewalk. He crosses the street and now a car is parked and the passersby are different. (01:32:05)

Factual error: Alva and Owen go see the movie "One Way Passage", released in October 1932. The movie takes places in August, the year is not stated explicitly, but there's a wall calendar in the dining room at the boarding house (you can see it when Legate leaves, calling himself a fink) for 1934, and at the same time the date shown in the office (when Redford sits at the desk to decide who will get pink slips) is August 14, Friday, which would set the movie in 1931.
