The Danger Makers - S4-E20

Factual error: Major Robinson threatens Steed with a revolver equipped with a silencer. A military officer would certainly know better. Though it's a common movie and TV cliché, it is a glaring error. Revolvers are open-chambered, allowing sound to escape out the back of the barrel - so they can't be silenced. There are rare exceptions if the gun is heavily modified to close the open chamber gap, but that does not apply to the weapon featured here. (00:46:00)

Hannah - S9-E13

Continuity mistake: The red draperies framing Hannah's train-window flashback do not even vaguely resemble the drapes seen on the same window in every other shot aboard the train.

The Thirteenth Hole - S4-E18

Continuity mistake: Jackson plants an explosive device in the 12th green cup while Mrs. Peel is watching through the periscope. He doesn't pick it up again, but when Reed looks, Jackson is still holding the bomb. (00:44:00)

Blackmail (1929)

Continuity mistake: When the artist speaks to his landlady, his walking cane is tucked horizontally under his arm. In the very next shot, however, the cane jumps to a vertical position and is now in his hand. (00:21:00)

The Devil's Necklace: Part 1 - S4-E31

Revealing mistake: Bart teaches Tawney how to wash her face with a bar of soap. When he dries her cheek, the actress' heavy "Indian" make-up is wiped away, revealing a very white complexion. The white patch disappears in the next shot. (00:45:00)

Family Pride - S4-E17

Continuity mistake: In the opening scene, rear-screen projection footage behind the stagecoach shows a landscape covered with trees. When Crippen points out the mountains, we see an expanse of completely treeless desert. In the next shot, the trees have returned.
