Swords into Ploughshares - S2-E7
Continuity mistake: Laura is handed a cup of tea that is only half-full. But when she puts the cup down, it's full.
Continuity mistake: When Angus is found dead, Daisy has her hands steepled in front of her face, but, in the next shot, her hands are lowered to her chin - except in the mirror, where they are still steepled in front of her face.
Continuity mistake: At the beginning, Rosemary has her glasses in her hand and she tries a couple of times to get her glasses case out of her bag, but she doesn't succeed - except, suddenly, her glasses are gone.
Continuity mistake: The first time Laura attempts to enter the Ebenezer Scrooge room she can't fit and Rosemary has to give her a couple of hard shoves from behind. But, later, she goes in and out easily.
Continuity mistake: When the girls are standing in the doorway of Anges's room, considering staying there, in the reflection of the mirror, Rosemary's hand is over her mouth, but, in the next shot, not in the mirror, her hand is over her forehead.
Continuity mistake: At the very end, the girls, Ben and Burt are celebrating with champagne, but Laura's glass isn't as full as it was in the previous shot and, if you look closely, you can see that she only pretends to take a sip.
Continuity mistake: Near the end, Rosemary has a photo in her right hand. When Dr Fairborne starts to get aggressive, at first, Rosemary tries to keep the photo away from him, but when he grabs her and threatens her with a scythe on her neck, the photo has vanished.
Continuity mistake: In order to meet the Queen, Laura stands up from her last minute toils in the herb garden and she has a plant in her her left hand and a trowel in her right. Suddenly, the trowel is gone.
Continuity mistake: When they all line up for the Queen, Ryan is standing next to Rosemary, but suddenly he's gone.
Continuity mistake: At dinner, there is a red wine bottle that stands in the middle of the table, but when Trish arrives, the bottle is now on her placemat.
Continuity mistake: When Laura is clearing the herb garden, on the first day, she overhears Mr Bingham arguing with the Dean; in her hands, she has a very large pair of scissors; but when she turns away, she is now holding a scythe.
Continuity mistake: The windowpane that is broken by the thief is in a door that desperately needs a good paint job. It's the door that leads outside and to a small room full of plants, a veranda of sorts. But when Laura looks at the door, she's looking at the inner door, which looks like it has just been painted, and, in the morning, the broken pane is covered up by a piece of wood, but, again, it's the inner door, which is totally wrong. It's the outer door's window pane that was broken.
Continuity mistake: When the police are interviewing people about Mr Volker's death, the girls are talking to the lawnmower man, who turns the ignition on and releases the brake, but in the next shot he reaches down to release the brake, despite having already done it.
Continuity mistake: Just before the girls leave Helena's, Laura wants to try out the new lights, but when she turns them on - there are 7 of them - they all blow, but 15 bulbs blow, not 7.
Continuity mistake: The first time the girls park outside Helena's place, they park further away from Helena's red door, as does the motorcycle in front of them - both of them park outside a blue door. But when Helena opens her red door, the Rover and motorcycle are right outside.
Continuity mistake: All the times the girls have visited Mr Allbright's rooms, they've had to press the intercom and get buzzed in. But on the last visit, Rosemary just walks in without waiting to be buzzed in.
Continuity mistake: When we first meet Hibby, and after the girls sit down, Hibby has her arm resting on the divider between the two benches; then, in the next shot, her arm is resting on her bag.
Continuity mistake: When the lawnmower man crashes his machine, he is thrown clear, but in the next shot his leg is supposed to be caught under the lawnmower.
Continuity mistake: After the girls have seen the site of their next job, Rosemary hands Laura the keys to the Rover. Laura has a bag over her right shoulder. When she climbs into the Rover and closes the door, the shoulder strap of her bag vanishes.
Continuity mistake: Near the end, Laura is pouring the champagne, but while she's pouring it, Lydia and Penelope have their glasses filled to the top in front of them, but Laura hadn't finished pouring it yet.
Chosen answer: Maybe she thinks she's so old that she'll be back in the mortuary soon, so why go home?
