The Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12
Audio problem: When Haddock and Tintin resurface, he realises the driver and Snowy haven't. He then says "They haven't come up". His mouth is out-of-sync at least twice in this line. (00:15:20)
The Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12
Other mistake: When the taxi gets hit, the number plate reads "GE 7051" on the back of the car, but when the taxi falls into the water, the number plate reads "GE 7054" on the front of the car. The number plate should be the same on both ends. (00:14:55)
The Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12
Continuity mistake: When Tintin and Haddock arrive at the hotel, they start talking to the guy at the counter. They ask about Calculus and the guy turns his head to the keys. The next shot shows him looking at the key to 122. If you look in the previous shot, you see the key hook for room 122 are in the far background. (00:12:35)
The Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12
Continuity mistake: When the villain runs out of Calculus's lab, he drops a box of cigars. The box is dark red when dropped, light red when Tintin notices it, and dark red again once Tintin picks the box up. (00:11:30)
The Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12
Audio problem: After the bullet is shot at Calculus's hat, Tintin says "That sounded like a gunshot... outside". After he says "gunshot...", his mouth starts moving as if he is speaking before he even starts to say "outside". (00:06:40)
The Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12
Revealing mistake: The villain holds a syringe and some liquid comes out of it. It's plainly visible that there is no liquid in it. Syringes are see through - we should have seen the liquid. (00:06:05)
The Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12
Continuity mistake: Haddock is handed a bottle of wine. His hand covers the label in the first shot, but the label faces away from him in the next. (00:05:40)
The Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12
Continuity mistake: When the vase shatters, the remains of the vase falls onto the floor. Yet when a man walks into the house and says "Tiff with the wife, eh?", all of the remains have now ended up above the fireplace. (00:03:55 - 00:05:15)
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 Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12
Other mistake: One of the villains says "With pleasure" after looking at Calculus and his radio. The other villain has a cigarette in his mouth. In this shot, you can see the cigarette has two ends to it. The edge of it cannot be ash because that would have been washed away in the rain. (00:03:15)
The Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12
Other mistake: The villains look at Calculus on his radio. In this shot, Calculus has a reflection in the mirror but his eyes don't seem to have a reflection at all. (00:03:05)
The Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12
Revealing mistake: The villains stand in front of Marlinspike Hall. The shot after a close-up of their feet shows the clouds along with a storm. Look to the lower left corner and you will see part of the grey cloud doesn't have any color on it, like the animation cell has been scratched. (00:02:50)
The Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12
Continuity mistake: When the rain storm starts, the part of Tintin's hair that sticks up flattens down. After Nestor appears with an umbrella and they take off running, Tintin's hair is sticking up again. (00:02:30)
The Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12
Audio problem: Haddock says "Take a whiff of that fine fresh air". His mouth doesn't match what he says. (00:01:35)
The Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12
Continuity mistake: Snowy finds a bone. He bites down on the middle of it. When Tintin takes the bone off him a few seconds later, Snowy is suddenly biting the near end of it. (00:01:15)
The Black Island: Part 2 - S1-E11
Continuity mistake: The old Irish man has white pale skin. In the shot after the gorilla shows himself to the public, the old Irish man instantly has brown skin. (00:43:10)
The Black Island: Part 2 - S1-E11
Continuity mistake: An old Irish guy has a teal jumper whilst a middle age Irish guy is talking to a reporter. In the next shot, that man now has a blue jumper. (00:43:10)
The Black Island: Part 2 - S1-E11
Continuity mistake: Two Irish people talk to a reporter after the three villains get arrested. The older guy's hat changes color between shots. (00:43:10)
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)
The Black Island: Part 2 - S1-E11
Continuity mistake: Tintin first has dark grey socks when he arrives at the Irish village. A few scenes later on The Black Island, when Tintin begins to run away from the huge gorilla on the tower roof, he now has white/light grey socks. (00:34:00 - 00:37:30)
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.
