Death in Paradise

One for the Road - S5-E2

Revealing mistake: When Humphrey checks out of the mail from the dating website at the end of the episode, behind the window of the mail client, there's a fingerprint file with the name "Adam Frost" and a 2014 sampling date; it's a file recycled from two seasons before, 3-4. (00:49:55)

Dishing Up Murder - S5-E6

Revealing mistake: While they are checking out Matt Holt's discount Facebook page (Face-spaces dot com) on the computer, behind the browser window there's an open file with a fingerprint, and like in another episode of this series, it's a fingerprint not related at all to this case, but one from three years earlier, the episode of season 3 "Ye of Little Faith", this time from the victim of that case Natasha Thiebert.

Dishing Up Murder - S5-E6

Revealing mistake: Florence and Humphrey are reading the article about the young Dexter Allen from the Hackney Gazette. Behind the article, Florence has her mail open. Amazingly enough, the names of the people she received mail from (Joshua, David, Faye, a Customer service) are the same ones as the victims in She Was Murdered Twice, season 4 episode 7 when one of the suspects opened it from a public computer.

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.

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?
