The Complex Murder - S5-E1

Factual error: The website of the toy manufacturer has as address for its store a location in Harrogate, but the ZIP code has an incorrect format, with the 4th character being an O and not a zero, and HG4 being the neighbouring Ripon. (00:28:30)

Flames of Love - S5-E8

Factual error: When JP shows the article from the Cowbridge Gazette, it is the Wednesday 22.01.16. January the 22nd was a Friday in 2016. Following article's date; Wednesday 2.2.2016. Actual 2.2.2016: a Tuesday. (00:15:25)

Flames of Love - S5-E8

Factual error: The stratagem used to conceal the murder and disguise it as suicide is absurd from the start; it relies on the old trope of a gun "silenced" shooting through a pillow. It simply does not work, a gunshot in the early morning in the empty camp would have not been dulled down significantly by a pillow, and still be heard.

Man Overboard: Part 2 - S6-E6

DI Jack Mooney: My grandfather told me a story once, about these two wolves fighting inside all of us. And one of them is anger, envy, self-pity, regret. The other one is love, truth, faith, hope, that sort of thing.
And I asked him "which one of the wolves would win?" And do you know what he said?
"The one you feed." (00:18:15)

Trivia

Erupting in Murder - S6-E1

Trivia: A bit of the episode has been cut for the streaming releases; at the end of the scene with Humphrey taking Martha's luggage, he would make a date with her for the next day, to cook dinner for her at 8. This has been eliminated probably because it created timing issues with 8 PM being too well lit (in contrast with the supposed timing of the murder) and the ending takes place at Catherine's for a cute drinking scene anyway.
