Continuity mistake: Inspector Ressler is struck across the temple on his left side in the scene at the "bawdy house". He holds a hanky on that spot later and there are no visible marks to the right side (his right) of his face. Then, in the street scene afterwards and while looking at the Swedish Bakery he has marks on his right temple. Those marks are no longer there in later scenes such as Claxton's office. (00:41:20 - 00:42:30)
Ripper Street (2012)
1 continuity mistake in season 1 - chronological order
Starring: Matthew Macfadyen, Adam Rothenberg, Jerome Flynn, David Wilmot
Genres: Mystery
Factual error: Everyone celebrates the beginning of the new century at midnight on 31 December 1899. In fact, the beginning of the 20th century was celebrated (correctly) at midnight on 31 December 1900. In those days people still knew that a decade (and a century) begins with a year 1, not a year 0.
