Deliberate mistake: "The X-Factor": Car-wreck stock footage turns the admiral's 1965 sedan into a much shorter, fatter 1950s model when it bursts into flames and rolls down the embankment. (00:26:00)

Show generally

Deliberate mistake: "The X-Factor": When the helicopter is chasing Nelson's car, re-used footage from a first season show briefly turns the otherwise color episode black and white. (00:24:00)

The Nowhere Affair - S2-E24

Continuity mistake: The ghost town's saloon is draped with huge spider webs when Solo explores it. But the ghosts obviously have a cleaning service. When Illya arrives later, there's nary a web in sight. (00:02:30 - 00:21:30)

The Nowhere Affair - S2-E24

Continuity mistake: Langolius' cigarette in the long black holder disappears between takes as he picks up Solo's dossier to examine it. (00:14:15)

Killers of the Deep - S2-E15

Factual error: Due to the extensive use of borrowed footage from the WWII film "The Enemy Below," the 1970s crew of the renegade sub (who are not German and who wore civilian clothes in most shots) suddenly acquire 1940s German U-boat caps and uniforms. (00:30:00)

Continuity mistake: "11 Days to Zero": A saboteur on an overhead scaffold hastily sprays an X on the top of Nelson's car with white paint. In later aerial shots, the X is composed of 2 perfectly straight, thick lines stretching from corner to corner of the car's roof. No way was that X made in a few seconds with a spray can. (00:03:00)

Doomsday - S1-E19

Deliberate mistake: The huge system and missile control boards containing the failsafe units suddenly appear on Seaview's bulkheads just for this episode. And of course, they disappear after this, never to be seen again. (00:15:00)

Jean G

Doomsday - S1-E19

Continuity mistake: Captain Crane removes a failsafe key, which is hanging outside his uniform collar, from around his neck. It wasn't there in the previous shot. (00:10:30)

Continuity mistake: "Night of the Arrow": West and Gordon leave two champagne bottles and four glasses sitting on the table when they walk away to answer the door. When they return, the bottles and glasses have all completely changed positions by themselves. (00:41:30)

Jean G

The Night of the Arrow - S3-E16

Factual error: The soldiers toss Artemus into the cell, slam the door and walk away. But they never produce a key or lock the cell door. He's somehow locked in anyway, though. (00:24:30)

Continuity mistake: "Night of the Arrow": President Grant's cigar keeps getting longer, shorter, and longer again as he gives West and Gordon their special assignment aboard the train. (00:08:10)

Show generally

Continuity mistake: "Night of the Arrow": When Artemus pours the president a drink, the glass is only 1/4 full. When Grant picks it up, however, it's suddenly 3/4 full. (00:09:15)

Revealing mistake: "Night of the Jack of Diamonds": During his fight with West, Sordo the bandito, who has a gray beard, is suddenly several years younger with a dark brown beard, thanks to the substitution of a stunt double. (00:35:30)

Show generally

Factual error: "Invaders": The ship's doctor claims that carbon 14 dating proves the man from the undersea capsule to be 20 million years old. Not likely. Carbon 14 testing can date once-living matter only within the last 70,000 years, and is generally considered accurate only within the last 50,000. (00:23:00)

Long Live the King - S1-E15

Deliberate mistake: The Seaview's 8 huge picture windows were a concession to design over practicality. Though they knew that such big windows could never withstand deep sea pressures, the producers wanted the characters - and the audience - to be able to see all the underwater wonders "up close." The "impossible" windows became one of the show's most popular features. (00:25:10)

Jean G

Long Live the King - S1-E15

Revealing mistake: One of the saboteurs sneaking into the palace keeps looking up at someone off camera. He's not watching the door he just entered by, so who's he looking at in what should be an empty corner of the room? (00:00:30)

Jean G

Escape from Venice - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: Nelson takes the captured assassin's knife and says that Alicia was killed with one just like it. But he can't possibly know that. He never saw the body or the weapon. Only Crane was with Alicia when she was murdered, and Crane, still missing in action, hasn't been in contact with Nelson. (00:42:15)

Jean G

The Virtue Affair - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: The dead guards, who were all over the courtyard after the gun battle, have all disappeared when Solo and Albert return to untie Illya. (00:44:10 - 00:47:30)

Jean G

Last Act - S1-E5

Factual error: Vampire Erica commits suicide by sitting on a park bench at sunrise. Nick and Schanke are called to the scene only a short time later, or so we're led to believe, yet it's still fully dark when they arrive. No sunrise in sight. (00:01:00 - 00:05:30)

Jean G

The Virtue Affair - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: Solo's white gloves are on, off, and on again between takes as he and Albert run from the courtyard, search for the control room, and then finally go back for Illya. (00:44:15)
