The Secret of the Unicorn: Part 1 - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When the pirates are partying, one of them throws a wine bottle towards the tied up Francis Haddock. One of his hands is shown tied and wrapped in ropes. The shot then switches to a close-up of his hand, which is now wrapped around the ropes tying his body to the mast, and not the other ropes shown a second ago. (00:17:10)

The Secret of the Unicorn: Part 2 - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: Tintin, Haddock and Snowy are walking down the street and Haddock says he's going to be rich and tosses his hat in the air. There is a lamppost right next to Tintin. A man then opens his window, telling Haddock to keep the noise down and Tintin is suddenly standing about a foot away from the post. (00:26:20)

The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: After Tintin runs into the storage room, he barricades the door with several crates and Allan and the three bad guys are shown trying to get in by pulling on the door handle. At the end of the shot, the door handle is pointing upwards, but in the shot of Allan and three bad guys, the other end of the door handle is completely straight. (00:14:30)

The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1

Other mistake: When Tintin discovers the torn out part of the wrapper, Tintin asks "What are these?" and one of the detectives reply "Objects found on a drowning victim." At this moment, the Thompsons are shown holding six files in their hands, but the way they are shown holding it would never be possible. This is mainly due to the fact that the second file is located on top of another file to the left, but there are four others on top. These four files are creating too much weight and would have fallen over. (00:03:35)
