The Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: After the window shatters, we can see some of the glass still remains. A few minutes later, a man arrives at the house. When he goes to get his coat from Nestor, the glass that remained in the window has vanished. We know it's the same window because the glass is still on the floor. (00:03:50 - 00:06:00)

The Black Island: Part 2 - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: On the tower roof, the gorilla makes a roar that causes Tintin's hat to fall off the tower and into the sea (or rocks around the island). Tintin and Snowy run down a flight of stairs and the gorilla follows them. When the gorilla reaches the bottom of the stairs, he is wearing Tintin's hat. There wouldn't have been anywhere for him to get the hat since it would be in the sea or rocks by that time. (00:37:15 - 00:38:10)
