Man Overboard: Part 2 - S6-E6

Man Overboard: Part 1 - S6-E5

Revealing mistake: Dwayne turns the volume of the computer in DI Jack Mooney's office; when we start hear him, the volume has gone up just a few notches, but it's already just as loud in the end as it is when Dwayne finishes to set it. (00:29:10)

The Secret of the Flame Tree - S6-E2

Revealing mistake: Florence shows to her boss a copy of the birth certificate of Lizzie Baptiste. It is signed "Overseas British Territory of Saint Marie", dates back to 1954 with a photostatic copy of the original typewritten entry, and her school certificate is also written in English. Saint Marie though, according to its fictional history, was part of France at the time, having been a British territory only for 30 years before Season 1 (set in 2011). (00:25:40)

Erupting in Murder - S6-E1

Revealing mistake: When Dwayne holds the copy of the local newspaper with his goat comment making the headline, the text of the article repeats itself; you can see aligned in both columns the name of the commissioner accompanied by "pictured right." (00:23:15)

Episode #2.7 - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: When Fidel and Dwayne arrive at the place where Camille and Richard are hiding for the hurricane, they can open the doors without a problem, whereas Camille and Richard had taken great care of locking the doors from the inside.

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.

Show generally

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.
