Cigars of the Pharaoh: Part 1 - S1-E6

Revealing mistake: After the plane flies off, the gunmen continue to fire. If you look at the gunman on the bottom left, every time he shoots, a small smoke cloud comes out of the shotgun. The smoke cloud just stays on the edge of the shotgun until he shoots the next time. (00:20:55)

Other mistake: The detectives run away from a goat that chases after them. If you watch their movements and the goat's movements, you will see the goat isn't running in the direction they are running in just after they jump over a sand hill. (00:15:25)

King Ottokar's Sceptre: Part 2 - S2-E5

Question: When Tintin and the King discover King Ottokar's scepter had been stolen, both Hector and the guards are shown to have been knocked out. Later, Tintin points out that Hector had stolen the scepter by placing it in a camera, put it next to the window and shot it out of the window using the camera. If that's how Hector managed to get the scepter out of the building, then what was it that caused Hector and the guards to get knocked out? (00:33:10 - 00:35:50)

Chosen answer: If Hector was seriously intent on removing King Ottokar's scepter from the glass cage holding it and launching it through the window with the camera, then Hector would have been forced to knock out the two guards so they would not have interfered with Hector's plan as soon as he removed the scepter from the glass. As for Hector, himself, was explained when Tintin was explaining how Hector stole the scepter. Tintin placed a twig inside the camera and it launched out of the camera. Hector would have placed the scepter inside of the camera, and would have been knocked unconscious due to the spring effect created when the scepter had been launched.
