The Adventure of the Cheap Flat - S2-E7
Continuity mistake: Poirot is doing his round of phone calls at night clubs looking for the chanteuse; the pen before Hastings' arrival is pointed to the left side of the screen, when he sits down (and Poirot has not touched it) it points to the right. (00:24:40)
The Adventure of the Western Star - S2-E9
Continuity mistake: Japp shows his documents to the two policemen who caught him lurking in the bushes; when he says "Twigez-vous?" he's holding the card by the corner, while in the reverse shot ("Oh, very sorry, Sir") he's holding it in the middle. (00:25:30)
The Disappearance of Mr. Davenheim - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: Japp taunts Poirot, presenting him with the mystery. While he does that, he turns around towards himself the magic book. When he leaves, Suchet reaches for the book that is more distant from him and turned the 'right' way. (00:12:00)
The Kidnapped Prime Minister - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: When Poirot tells his tailor that it's his equipment that is at fault, Hastings holds the newspaper in ways not coherent between shots (he folds it, but in the reverse shot is still looking at the top of the page, and so on). (00:04:20)
The Kidnapped Prime Minister - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: Poirot opens the car window in two shots; in the first he is holding his walking stick close to the body, but in the second he has a completely different posture, with the cane perfectly vertical and his arm at a right angle. (00:13:20)
The Adventure of the Western Star - S2-E9
Continuity mistake: Mademoiselle Marvelle outstretches her arm to hand Poirot the menacing message; her hand does not move in the following shot, but when we get back to a full view of Rosalind Bennett, she is holding the card with her arm bent. (00:07:05)
The Kidnapped Prime Minister - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: Hastings has lost sight of the car he was pursuing, and stops at the crossroads. In the wide shot you can see his left hand holding the top of the windshield, but in the close-up he's using just his right hand. (00:40:40)
The Adventure of the Cheap Flat - S2-E7
Continuity mistake: Poirot knocks at the door of The Black Cat, next to a street worker and a pimp. Nobody is walking down the street in the wider shot, but in the close-up an elderly couple passes by. (00:22:55)
The Adventure of the Western Star - S2-E9
Continuity mistake: Japp watches the worker with the flags pass him by while he's leaning his arm on the window. His arm was not there in the shot of the vehicle from behind. (00:45:15)
Double Sin - S2-E6
Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode, Hastings flips the cutting, having the left palm on the back of it. Next shot, and he's holding it by a corner. (00:50:45)
The Adventure of the Western Star - S2-E9
Continuity mistake: When Japp shows the police ID to the road worker, he is holding it by the side in the close-up and by the bottom corner in the next shot. (00:45:05)
The Adventure of the Western Star - S2-E9
Continuity mistake: When Poirot does the handkiss on lady Yardly, she has her thumb up when she's viewed from the front, but down in the side view. (00:45:55)
Continuity mistake: When Mr. Vyse is beginning to talk about the new will, in the wide shot encompassing the whole table, the open folder is raised, as the left page is sitting on top of another object. In the close-up of the letter, the folder is perfectly level with the table. (00:34:45)
Continuity mistake: Once Ghost Nick enters the room and Poirot turns on the lights, the Crofts stare at her, and you can see in frame the right arm of "Mne LeMon", sitting by Milly. Next shot though, Miss Lemon is standing on her feet. (00:40:10)
Continuity mistake: Commander Challenger in front of his boat laughs with Hastings "I hope my alibi is in order." As he says that, Hastings nods. During this close-up, his hat is casting a completely different shadow, covering his whole shoulder instead of just the back of the neck as in the rest of the scene. (01:03:35)
Continuity mistake: Jim Lazarus pulls over by the protagonists to complain about being unable to see Nick. During the scene, Paul Geoffrey's different facial expressions are shown in the side mirror of the car, but each time we cut back to him, he has the same stoic face listening to Poirot. (00:47:00)
Continuity mistake: Poirot rudely awakens Hastings with his three questions. You get a good view of Hastings' wristwatch on the bedstand. When at the end of the Q&A Hastings turns his attention to the watch, it is in a completely different position. (00:41:25 - 00:42:35)
Continuity mistake: When Gertie and Joey make their escape running down the stairs of the hall, they pass by a couple (she has a white hat and a blue dress). When Poirot and Japp run after them, the same couple has jumped back several meters. (00:43:00)
The Disappearance of Mr. Davenheim - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: When Poirot at dinner asks the first question (the bathroom one), he does not have his large napkin in his vest. When he asks the second one (the bedroom one), the napkin he had for all the rest of the scene is back. (00:40:15)
The Disappearance of Mr. Davenheim - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: When Poirot does the newspaper trick for Miss Lemon, the final reveal has him present the newspaper holding it between index and thumb in the front view, index and middle with the thumb sticking out in the back view. (00:42:10)
Answer: He definitely says "Belgian", but the subtitles get it wrong and show him saying "American."
