Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, Darlene asks, and Jack turns to point with his cane where Dwayne went. Next shot and seen from behind Jack never moved, he's facing ahead and left. (00:01:45)
Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5
Continuity mistake: Uncharacteristically, Commissioner Selwyn Patterson joins the police investigation, at least at the very beginning. He takes his jacket off, and his tie reaches slightly below the belt of his pants. When he finds the body, the tie is a couple inches above the belt. Technically he is off-screen for what amounts of few minutes of plot, but it'd be ridiculous to picture him undoing his tie and making a tighter knot while he's in the middle of a search in the woods - he'd have just removed the tie and pocketed it entirely if it was being a nuisance.

Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5
Continuity mistake: Officer J.P. Hooper hands DS Florence Cassell the item found in the glove box. The opening of the evidence bag flops at the bottom, but in the close-up, when she says that it's probably expensive, she holds the plastic flap against her palm, sideways. (00:12:25)
Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5
Continuity mistake: Jack and Florence are interrogating the instructor Adam Warner at the club. During the scene there are transitions between frontal views of the suspect and wide shots of the whole terrace with everyone sitting. Each time, Rory Fleck Byrne's hand switches place, being on the armrest in one shot, on the thigh in the next, etc. (00:18:25)
Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5
Continuity mistake: Hugh Davenport runs off when the two police officers walk by. Jack comments on that; in the first shot, Florence lowers her hand while the wind blows. Second shot, both hands hold the evidence bag mid-waist and there's no wind. (00:20:30)
Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5
Continuity mistake: When the police visit the club treasurer Charlotte Hamilton, in the opening wide shot Jack's tie curves sharply because of the wind, but before the cut the wind breaks and the tie gets down. However in the next shot his tie is all the way windblown. Likewise, Charlotte's bang in that same shot is messy and upturned, but is back to normal in the next one. (00:25:35)
Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5
Continuity mistake: During her interrogation, Charlotte Hamilton walks back to the table with a stronger drink. Before she sits down, the lemonade jug has more liquid in it than in the shots before and after. (00:26:45)
Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5
Continuity mistake: When Jack and Florence talk to Hugh, Florence's top when she is shot from behind has the two straps on her left shoulder about one inch apart, while they are joined close in the front views. The mistake goes on throughout the whole scene. (00:32:50)
Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5
Continuity mistake: Jack puts the CCTV CDs on the counter, and the owner of the club peeks at them folding the newspaper. In the next shot, the newspaper is straight as it was before. (00:32:55)
Answer: Most likely they had only tropical exotic drinks, he wanted an old fashioned English beer.
