Murder in the Polls - S6-E8

Continuity mistake: Back at the station, Jack picks Peter Baxter's profile off Florence's pile. Action happens in two shots, and the marker in his hand does a 180°; black cap up/black cap down. The mistake happens again later, with Catherine's picture. (00:10:50)

Murder in the Polls - S6-E8

Continuity mistake: After Judith Dawson's first testimony, Jack thanks her; Florence is just pretending to write and stops, but in the next shot she is back at it, scribbling her pad with the pen. At the end of this new shot, she stops writing, but is writing again in the next, all while DI Jack Mooney talks in continuity. (00:08:55)

Murder in the Polls - S6-E8

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, Edwina Bousquet scoffs at the apology and gets up. Close-up of Judith Dawson, and you can see for a second in the background the bike with Danny John-Jules entering the premises. But there is no sound effect for it and in the next cuts he's nowhere to be seen; he arrives only later. (00:00:25)

In the Footsteps of a Killer - S6-E7

Continuity mistake: The forensics team consisting of JP and his DJ cousin has produced the magnified audio of the background noise featured in the taping. Everyone turns then to the whiteboard, but Florence's hand position on her mug does not match in the different shot shots (thumb on or off the rim, mug raised as she drinks, mug in front of her chest).

In the Footsteps of a Killer - S6-E7

Continuity mistake: During the interview at the bar, the quantity of coconut and rum in Tony Garret's glass changes between shots multiple times. Easiest bit to spot it is towards the end when he brags that he could find a dozen witnesses in an hour; as he says that line, the liquor barely covers half of the ice cubes, but after a brief cut on Ardal O'Hanlon, the glass is full enough to cover most of them.

Man Overboard: Part 2 - S6-E6

Continuity mistake: When Martha says "Yes" to Humphrey, the waiter in the background has his hands free. She kisses him in the next shot, and in order to clap with the others the waiter has to put down two wine glasses he was holding. (00:49:45)

Man Overboard: Part 2 - S6-E6

Continuity mistake: At the pub towards the end of the episode, Jack brings a glass of rum to Dwayne. He hands it to him with his left, but you can see in the shot when he begins to get seated that it's the right arm that he has extended. (00:48:10)

Man Overboard: Part 2 - S6-E6

Continuity mistake: Up to the point when Martin West says he took the gun to 'impress the lads', Florence has her hair to the right of her face going in front of the shoulder. New shot, and there's much of it combed back, and it keeps going back and forth until it's again all in the front in Florence's next close-up. (00:26:15)

Man Overboard: Part 2 - S6-E6

Continuity mistake: The detectives are discussing the presence of the cufflink. Humphrey asks if "He's taken his own life in remorse", and the camera cuts to the deceased. Notice an iPhone on the desk by him. A moment later, the phone rings and Humphrey has to search the victim's pockets to come up with the phone. (00:04:55)

Man Overboard: Part 1 - S6-E5

Continuity mistake: Humphrey puts on the banker's desk the printed article that establishes him as an old friend of the victim. The paper is in a different spot of the desk depending on the camera angle - you can easily tell by the upper left corner of the sheet, that either juts out from the other papers on the desk, or is properly on top of them. (00:45:10)
