Luther (2010)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake in season 1 - chronological order
Starring: Idris Elba, Ruth Wilson, Michael Smiley, Warren Brown, Dermot Crowley
Episode #1.3 - S1-E3
Character mistake: Luther and Ripley pretend they have not been on the boat and did not find the victim's body as they do not have a search warrant and do not want to compromise the case. However, under English law a police officer may legally enter any premises without a warrant in order to save life, prevent injury or protect property. Since they have a reasonable belief that the victim is being held prisoner on the boat and her life is in danger (as far as they know at that time she is still alive), they don't need a warrant. As experienced police officers, they are bound to know this.
DCI John Luther: I'm coming for you.
Alice Morgan: Not if I come for you first.
