Tintin in Tibet: Part 2 - S2-E7
Continuity mistake: After Tintin and Haddock find the scarf, they continue climbing the rocks. Tintin climbs onto a rock which has a clear smooth shaping on the top. Yet from another angle of the rock, the top of the rock is now shaped differently. (00:26:10)
Tintin in Tibet: Part 2 - S2-E7
Continuity mistake: When Haddock goes to cut the rope, he ends up dropping his Swiss army knife. As it drops, the knife has a small ridge in it for opening with a thumbnail. In the following shot, when it is shown falling, the knife is still facing the same direction, but the ridge is no longer visible. Then in the next shot, the ridge is back again. (00:27:15)

Other mistake: As Tintin, Haddock and Tharkey set up camp, Tintin gets blown back by the tent. Tintin starts running as he is pulled by the tent and trips once he lets go. You'll notice that there is a huge skid mark from his landing on the ground before he does so. (00:28:30)
Tintin in Tibet: Part 2 - S2-E7
Other mistake: Haddock becomes exhausted and sits down. Tintin points out he'll freeze. Watch the two horizontal strips along the middle of his jacket. They are yellow for a few frames, then they go to blue for a few frames. Then if you look super carefully, you'll see that the two straps vanish from shot for a quick frame. Then they reappear. (00:29:10)
Tintin in Tibet: Part 2 - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: When the episode starts, Tintin rides into Marlinspike Hall on his motorbike. From a side angle of the bike after it has driven inside, the brace thing around the bike's wheels is black. After Haddock says "Ahoy, Tintin", the brace thing has become green. (00:01:15)
Tintin and the Picaros: Part 1 - S2-E8
Character mistake: When the bell on Haddock's clock rings, there is a shot showing the clock with the time on 8:00. All of the numbers used to represent the time shown on the clock are written in roman numerals, however, the roman numeral for the 8 shown on the clock is written out as VI. Eight in roman numerals should be VIII. (00:01:45)
Tintin and the Picaros: Part 1 - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: When Haddock goes to switch the news on, he gets up from his seat whilst Tintin is standing at the fire getting warm. Tintin's legs are slightly bent. But in a shot of Snowy, his legs are suddenly straight. (00:01:50)
Tintin and the Picaros: Part 1 - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: As Haddock cleans his teeth, the news on the radio states that Castafiore was arrested so Haddock spits out his gargling water. Some of the water and toothpaste goes over his beard. But when he runs into Tintin's room, his beard is as dry as a bone, with no toothpaste in sight. (00:03:10)
Tintin and the Picaros: Part 1 - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: At the start of the scene where Tintin and Haddock watch General Tapioca, the TV is colored light brown. When General Tapioca states that Tintin, Haddock and Calculus are invited, the TV is suddenly maroon. (00:04:00 - 00:04:30)
Tintin and the Picaros: Part 1 - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: When Tintin and Haddock watch Tapioca talking about them, a shot shows the TV's logo with a rectangle-shaped outline around the box. When Haddock advances on the TV in the next shot, the outline isn't there anymore. (00:04:00)
Tintin and the Picaros: Part 1 - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: When Tintin and Haddock watch a report of Tapioca yelling about them, loads of wavy lines go along the screen. When the shot ends, no wavy static lines are visible on the screen. Instantly in the next shot, the wavy static lines suddenly appear. (00:04:05)
Tintin and the Picaros: Part 1 - S2-E8
Other mistake: When Haddock turns off the TV after watching the report, he pushes the middle of the screen which turns the TV off. Pushing the TV at this angle would make him touch the TV screen, not a button to turn it off. (00:04:45)
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.
