Saint Seiya: Awakening

Character mistake: Before the second part of the duel with Shiryu at the end of Story Chapter 1, he mentions breaking Seiya's cloth, but it is the other way around.

Death in Paradise (2011)

Stumped in Murder - S6-E4

Continuity mistake: This is one of those episodes where names of the suspects on the whiteboard they look different under different angles. The horizontal stroke of the J in "Jerome Martin" is touching the hook, or not, the B in "Sabrina Martin" is different, etc. (00:13:15)

Death in Paradise (2011)

Stumped in Murder - S6-E4

Continuity mistake: Opening; a creepy dude puts his hand on the shoulder of the hero of the cricket game. In close-ups the hand is not on the polo's neck, in the intermediate wide shot it is right on it. (00:02:55)

The Impossible Murder - S6-E3

Trivia: A few lines of dialogue are cut from stream releases; in the interview with Samuel Palmer after they find out about the past, the detectives ask; "And you took the rap for him?" Samuel says "When the police asked me if anyone else was involved, I said no.", to which Florence replies "You served five years. That's quite a favour.", with Samuel saying "He was my friend. He would've done the same thing for me." This part contained a mistake, since it was established earlier that he served 4 years, not five (rap sheet that Florence read to Humphrey and was on camera in close-up), that might be the reason.

The Impossible Murder - S6-E3

Plot hole: With a deadly stab wound he put pressure on with a thin, blood-soaked scarf, the victim shed a couple of droplets on the floor, but did not leave a single bloody fingerprint on the items parts of the deception.

Death in Paradise (2011)

The Impossible Murder - S6-E3

Continuity mistake: While Florence is going through the humanitarian career choices of the victim with Humprey, Dwayne is having a phone conversation with the secretary of the solicitor (somehow not being disturbed by the others speaking loudly, and conveniently being heard only when he says bye). Next to him, there's a biro pen at the side of a notepad. Change of angle, and the pen is on top of the pad, and then again to the side of it. (00:24:45)

Death in Paradise (2011)

The Impossible Murder - S6-E3

Continuity mistake: Dwayne passes Humphrey the bagged notepad with a UK phone number scribbled on it. In close-up he is holding it with one hand. In the next shot his lips are still moving and yet he is holding it with two hands. (00:17:10)

Other mistake: The picture icon used to display King of Fighters 95 in Story mode (stage selection, waiting screens etc.) is, of all the possible teams, of a team that the protagonist does not meet at all in that year. By contrast, KoF 94 shows Kyo Kusanagi's team Japan and KoF 96 the Boss team led by Geese Howard, those are logical choices the protagonist interacts with and have influence on the story - the Psycho Soldiers team is not even mentioned in KoF 95.

Death in Paradise (2011)

The Impossible Murder - S6-E3

Deliberate mistake: Florence and Humphrey set up the scene using a printer that is nothing short of magical; the photos, in color, come out from the machine the instant that Florence displays the profile on screen. It is obviously done to speed up the scene - however, Florence could have printed the pictures beforehand and hand them to Humphrey one by one as she reviews on screen the profiles, there was no need to have them come out fresh from the printer with that kind of impossibly fast timing. (00:15:00)

Death in Paradise (2011)

The Impossible Murder - S6-E3

Continuity mistake: At the end of the first interview with the suspects, Florence caps Humprey's thank you to the helpful staffers with a rather unsubtle eyeroll. She changes position lowering the pen, that is on the other side and higher in the following shot, last of the scene. (00:15:00)

The Impossible Murder - S6-E3

Continuity mistake: DI Humphrey Goodman debriefed his team who just arrived on the island, and is about to head out to interview the staff. Elliot Taylor passes a glass to his wife, who picks it with her right hand and places it down on the armrest with the same hand, the other one holding a bottle of medicine. Next shot, and the hands swapped contents. (00:12:20)

Character mistake: Story mode, Asia Qualifiers, part 1. In the second chapter of Hyuga's training scene, Maki Akamine asks him "Can you can't this one? It's my best pitch!", obviously meaning "can you CATCH this one."

Death in Paradise (2011)

The Impossible Murder - S6-E3

Continuity mistake: Humphrey tries to sneak away without waking Martha up, but being Humphrey he fails. In the shot when he stands back up after the hilarious bawl, the bed is sunlit, contradicting what is shown before and after. (00:10:10)

The Impossible Murder - S6-E3

Continuity mistake: Linda Taylor brings to the inspector the keys as instructed. Goodman holds the keys and the packet of smokes at the same height, but when she is about to go away throwing a last look at the covered corpse, all of a sudden the key hand is much lower than the other. (00:09:50)

Death in Paradise (2011)

The Impossible Murder - S6-E3

Continuity mistake: Humphrey shows the outside of the murder scene to his girlfriend; when he casts the torchlight on the balcony, before the cut you can spot his right arm holding the torch at the left of the frame. He is holding the torch with his left hand before and after. (00:07:25)
