The Sniper - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: When Hawkeye is preparing to go for his picnic, Radar brings him some brandy from Col. Blake. There is only a small amount of brandy in the bottle, which is commented on. Radar takes a jug of martini from the still to top up the bottle, but this is not done and the jug of martini remains on top of the stove untouched. When the picnic scene takes place, the brandy bottle is now nearly full with the brandy/martini mix. (00:10:00)

Private Finance - S8-E8

Continuity mistake: When Klinger imposes himself between Oksun Li and Crosetti, he puts his hands on his hips. When Crosetti gets up, Klinger gestures with his hands which then drop down on either side. A split-second later they're on his hips again.
