Death in Paradise

Episode #3.1 - S3-E1

Revealing mistake: When Goodman looks at the two old pictures from the graduation ceremony side by side, they are blatantly photoshopped in a poor way; look at the way the characters stand out from the background, the light on the man on the right of the left pic, and there's even a frock or bag that two of the women carry that is a copy/paste from one picture to the other. (00:39:10)

Episode #3.7 - S3-E7

Revealing mistake: Dwayne aided by Emily is bringing in the two boxes of papers from the storage. Transporting them is a difficult task with the storm that is raging on. A strange storm that happens to shake the plants in the foreground, but with Caroline Proust's hair and the leaves of the trees on the other side completely untouched. (00:16:40)

Episode #3.7 - S3-E7

Revealing mistake: Goodman and Bordey are interviewing Terrance Jackson after the revelation involving Rosie. During the scene, in most shots despite the storm that supposedly is happening, the leaves outside are subjected to a gentle breeze if at all. (00:26:00)

Episode #3.7 - S3-E7

Revealing mistake: Dwayne finds a newspaper which hilariously happens to have a perfect close-up photo of one of the suspects out of the thousands of protesters, right on the first page. Couple of problems with it; first, the text is just 2 paragraphs copy/pasted all over, and second, more blatant; the caption of the photo says "Valerie Clayton", but Dwayne just called her "Valerie Pellow." (00:33:00)

Episode #1.5 - S1-E5

Plot hole: Leon Hamilton is the most hated man in Sainte Marie, with over 900 people on the island conned by him. Yet exactly one person in the whole island knows how he looks like, every newspaper and website never ever published a picture of him even during the very public trial when they were trying to get their thousands of dollars back nor publish an archive picture after his death.

Show generally

Question: Why did the cord on the wall phone in the police station change from straight in the early episodes to coiled later?

Answer: There's probably no particular reason. Sets and props on long-running TV shows often change as needed and for various reasons throughout a series run.
