Episode #1.7 - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: When Camille tells Curtis that probably the widow fancies too, making him all giddy, her hand takes different directions at every cut (fingers on cheek, fingers on jaw, fingers not in view, wrist turned the other way so it's the back of the hand to be under the chin, etc). (00:35:25)

Continuity mistake: When Richard asks the mysterious girl at the police station "I knew you were outside, crying. Why?" there's a reaction shot on her, saying nothing and just being pouty.

Episode #1.7 - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: Richard's bit of conversation in the market with Camille proves to be pointless, as he's got nothing yet. Camille remarks about it; through the car window on her side you can see, as in the earlier parts of the conversation, a woman with a pink top and a large flower-themed shopping bag. A moment later the Defender leaves, and behind it you can see the same woman, completely different part of the market. (00:17:50)

Continuity mistake: Camille and Richard are talking in the car in the middle of the market. With the camera positioned on Richard' side, his thumb dangles lower than the other fingers, that are leaning on top of the wheel.
