Murder from Above - S7-E1

Continuity mistake: Dwayne's bushy cover has been blown, so he nonchalantly walks out and greets the stern-looking Audrey. He opens his arms when he says her name, but in the reverse shot he repeats the movement, as he was still pretending to scribble on his pad. (00:14:00)

Murder from Above - S7-E1

Continuity mistake: After the chat with the hotel manager, Jack and Florence are in Stephen's room. The level of drink in Stephen Marston's cocktail glass changes between shots - it's half full when Jack is straining to sit down, and is back up right at the cut. (00:35:25)

Murder from Above - S7-E1

Continuity mistake: DI Jack Mooney is looking at the coroner report on the PC screen. He changes his stance and is initially hunched over and then straight, but the person in the foreground is keeping the exact same posture every time the camera cuts to Dwayne. (00:25:35)

Man Overboard: Part 2 - S6-E6

DI Jack Mooney: My grandfather told me a story once, about these two wolves fighting inside all of us. And one of them is anger, envy, self-pity, regret. The other one is love, truth, faith, hope, that sort of thing.
And I asked him "which one of the wolves would win?" And do you know what he said?
"The one you feed."

Erupting in Murder - S6-E1

Trivia: A bit of the episode has been cut for the streaming releases; at the end of the scene with Humphrey taking Martha's luggage, he would make a date with her for the next day, to cook dinner for her at 8. This has been eliminated probably because it created timing issues with 8 PM being too well lit (in contrast with the supposed timing of the murder) and the ending takes place at Catherine's for a cute drinking scene anyway. (00:22:50)

Question: When Richard reminisces about England, he talks about going to the pub and having a pint. Yet the whole time he's in Saint Marie, he is never seen to drink alcohol with the rest of the team; only cups of tea. Why?

Answer: Most likely they had only tropical exotic drinks, he wanted an old fashioned English beer.
