(12 votes)

J.'Digger' Doyle - S1-E17

Continuity mistake: The titular brunette easily overtakes Magnum during his jog. The sweat patch on his shirt becomes much larger through the span of a brief cutaway, and when he joins Rick after the jog, his shirt is completely dry. (00:03:10)

Sammo

J.'Digger' Doyle - S1-E17

Continuity mistake: In the first minutes, Rick is talking up the properties of some special fruit juice. He passes the glass to Magnum, who takes a sip from a slightly fuller glass than he was given, and passes back to him a glass with a level of juice that drops dramatically between shots, and keeps doing so throughout the entire scene. (00:04:20)

Sammo

J.'Digger' Doyle - S1-E17

Continuity mistake: The valet brings the Ferrari in front of the club. Digger leans on it with her right hand, dollars in her left hand, but in the next shot the money is on the same hand she is leaning on. (00:07:00)

Sammo

J.'Digger' Doyle - S1-E17

Continuity mistake: When Magnum does his puking act to make his best friend lose a lucrative job, the lady's hair is in front of her shoulder hen the camera is in front of her, windblown away from it when the camera is behind. (00:21:10)

J.'Digger' Doyle - S1-E17

Continuity mistake: During the rescue escape, while Magnum is carrying Higgins on his back, Higgins has handcuffs around his wrists. Each of the locked wrist cuffs have a single and double bar, and during the span of the rescue these cuffs switch direction and face the opposite way around Higgins' wrists, which is impossible.
