Episode #4.3 - S4-E3
Continuity mistake: When Florence passes the sheet with Alan Butler's info to DI Humphrey Goodman, on the background Dwayne is working at the computer and glances towards them - but as the paper reaches Goodman's hands in the next shot, Dwayne has changed stance and is sitting comfortably watching them. (00:12:15)
Episode #4.3 - S4-E3
Continuity mistake: When Camille spots the camera and asks Henri Garon to give it to the authorities, in close-up the camera is fairly close to the side of the table by him. In the wider angles though, it's noticeably more distant, at least compared to the distance with the shorter side of the table. (00:07:50)
Episode #4.3 - S4-E3
Continuity mistake: During the first interview with the suspects, at Catherine's, the drinks on the table are positioned differently depending on the angle; for instance when Imke Sandt mentions the "foraged for other ingredients", the slice of lemon on her glass is on the part of the rim closest to her, but when Camille begins her follow-up question the slice moved to the opposite side. (00:07:30)
Episode #4.3 - S4-E3
Continuity mistake: Dwayne goes through the personal belongings of the victim he just catalogued. In the background, watch for Florence; she is not holding a pen, her right hand is on the bloc notes. Camera closer up, and she is holding a pen. Moments later, Camille is writing with her pen that has the cap fitted on the top, except in the last shot (when Dwayne mentions the authentic meal) when it's gone. (00:05:35)
Episode #4.3 - S4-E3
Continuity mistake: During the rehearsal of the reenactment, one of the women is filming with a video camera; throughout the scene, the black strap of the device flutters at different length and position in the various shots. (00:01:15)
Episode #4.3 - S4-E3
Continuity mistake: Ryan Davison answers the phone, and then puts his right hand back on the rifle. He has both hands on it in the next shot. (00:01:05)
Episode #4.3 - S4-E3
Continuity mistake: When the explorers come out of the boat, the younger one starts to pull a large sack out. In the next shot, the sack is still on the bottom of the boat and just then he is lifting it. (00:00:10)
Episode #4.2 - S4-E2
Plot hole: The police staff in this episode act as if it's morning and they just met; Camille goes fetch her boss at his shack after he barely survived some jogging, and he never asked her about the date she had the previous episode, aka previous night (because of course two murders happen in two days in the little island). But the murder happened in the evening, at least well past 5 PM when it rained. Aside from the fact that the light during the first interview with the suspects is perfect and bright for being dinnertime even in a tropical paradise, what have Humphrey & co. been doing all day, if the day is almost over and they are exactly as we left them at the end of the previous episode?
Episode #4.2 - S4-E2
Continuity mistake: During the denouement, Florence and Dwayne are standing under direct sunlight, or not - for instance look at their position when DI Humphrey Goodman says "None of that helped with the central problem" after quickly going through names and motivations, compared to "and then, it all started to make sense " (00:43:55)
Episode #4.2 - S4-E2
Audio problem: Florence talks about the financial problems of the surfing school. Doing so, she says that they have two mortgages and they "are behind in both." This last part is pronounced with the camera behind Joséphine Jobert, but the timing between audio and jaw movement is off. There's also a little jump in continuity with her left hand away from the sheet/on it. (00:35:10)
Episode #4.2 - S4-E2
Continuity mistake: After the lack of results during the night of surveillance, Humphrey checks in at the station and asks about it. Florence is holding the documents vertically, horizontally, vertically again between cuts. (00:35:00)
Episode #4.2 - S4-E2
Continuity mistake: Camille goes to her good friend and surfin' mentor Nicky Dexter. He picks her up and the strap of Sara Martins' top falls off, but it's back on her left shoulder for the rest of the spin - and scene. (00:32:10)
Episode #4.2 - S4-E2
Continuity mistake: The police decide to put surveillance on the surf school. Goodman asks, staring at Dwayne "Any volunteers?" Dwayne is deep in thoughts with two fingers on his lips, but in the next shot the same fingers are on the opposite arm. (00:31:25)
Episode #4.2 - S4-E2
Continuity mistake: The detectives are visiting Dr. Karl Slater. Humphrey tells him he'd better start from the beginning as he walks away; there are two chairs to his side of the table, but one more appears in the reverse shot. (00:29:00)
Episode #4.2 - S4-E2
Continuity mistake: Examining the bottle of Riluzole, Camille holds it with both hands, in the close-up she lowers one hand, but when it cuts back to the same camera angle as earlier, she is still holding it with both hands. (00:28:10)
Episode #4.2 - S4-E2
Revealing mistake: Camille puts the name of the victim and "Watergate" as search terms, and manages to find the relevant news item from the past. The URL of the website though is just the one of the (fictitious) homepage (watergatenews.org), and not of a specific article. Moreover, the article is half relevant info, and half generic guide about surfing with a brisk cut from one to the other. (00:21:50)
Episode #4.2 - S4-E2
Continuity mistake: Florence just mentioned the shocking truth about Jess Chambers - Cornwall has a surf club! Humphrey turns around ordering to dig through the club finances - but in the first shot he is pointing his right hand, and in the second he's doing it with his left. Even more obvious a few moments later when he says "Hang on!"; points the finger, but with the right hand, then left hand. (00:21:00)
Episode #4.2 - S4-E2
Continuity mistake: When Charlie Beckett sprints away, seen from behind in a faraway shot, the towel from one shoulder runs down his back, but in the next shot he still has it draped around his neck. (00:18:20)
Episode #4.2 - S4-E2
Continuity mistake: When Humphrey knocks over the cup of coffee, the opening of the cup faces away from the table lamp. When he pulls the sock out of his jacket, the cup is facing the other way. (00:15:10)
Episode #4.2 - S4-E2
Continuity mistake: Goodman and Bordey are done with the first round of questions to the school members. As Camille begins to walk out, Charlie Beckett is sitting with his hands between his legs, but in the next shot he's sitting with his hands behind his back. (00:11:50)
Answer: Most likely they had only tropical exotic drinks, he wanted an old fashioned English beer.
