Plot hole: In the end, we see that Francesca entered the bedroom, ruffed up the bed, and tied herself up before shooting Shale. However, if Katrina hadn't entered the bedroom moments after the fatal shooting, where is Francesca's alibi? If Katrina weren't there, Francesca would have been sat there for possibly hours. The police would reasonably guess she shot him and then tied herself up. How did Francesca know that Katrina was going to be there and at what time in order to testify to her innocence? (00:41:00)
Jonathan Creek (1997)
1 plot hole in season 1 - chronological order
Starring: Alan Davies, Caroline Quentin, Stuart Milligan
Plot hole: Why on earth would a sleazeball like Adam Klaus be worried about news of a one-night stand being revealed? He'd welcome the publicity, if anything. Anyone threatening to go to the papers with news of a bit of rumpy-pumpy with him would be wasting their time.
Madeline Magellan: Enough with the pedanticism and let us eat.
Jonathan Creek: The word is pedantry.
Question: What exactly did Jonathan and Maddie give to the tramp in exchange for information?
Answer: It was actually mouthwash.
