Character mistake: When the Doctor is saying the decimals of Pi to avoid falling under the control of BOSS. He gets it wrong; he says "3.1416..." When it's actually 3.141592.
Continuity mistake: When Karra dies and turns back into her human/humanoid form she is wearing a black top that they did not wear as a Cheetah Person.
Battlefield - S26-E1
Character mistake: The Brigadier asks the pilot if she speaks Czechoslovakian, even though Czech and Slovak are different languages.
Revealing mistake: When the Doctor and Leela are confined to the officer's quarters, look at Leela's eyes after she sits down; one of her brown contact lenses has fallen out, revealing her real blue eye.
Remembrance of the Daleks - S25-E1
Continuity mistake: When the Doctor and Ace steal the military van they leave the doors open, but in the next shot when we see the van leaving Totters Lane the doors are suddenly closed.
Continuity mistake: The Doctor's hair goes from being messy and extremely curly in the TARDIS scenes to being combed and much less curly in the scenes set outside the TARDIS.
Continuity mistake: When the Doctor picks up the humanoid skull his hat is looking normal but in the next shot the brim of his hat is folded down and completely flat. In the next shot it's back to not folded again.
Continuity mistake: In episode 4, Skinsale is murdered by the Rutan on the stairs right outside the crew room but later in the episode when the Doctor and Leela runs down the same stairs, Skinsale's body is not there.
The Masque of Mandragora - S14-E1
Continuity mistake: When the Doctor is explaining about the Mandragora Helix, his scarf goes from being over his shoulder, to behind his shoulder and back.
Continuity mistake: When the Doctor enters the desert room in addition to his coat, he is wearing a brown waistcoat with a white shirt underneath. When the shot cuts away and the back to the Doctor, we see him take off his coat but he is no longer wearing the waistcoat. Later when he collects his coat after the acid bath scene and he starts to look through the wardrobe for a disguise he is mysteriously wearing the waistcoat again.
Remembrance of the Daleks - S25-E1
Other mistake: Right before the Doctor gets attacked by the destroyed Dalek he says: "Let me see, Professor" but the subtitles says: "That's impressive."
Audio problem: In Part 3 when the Brigadier gets behind the sand pile with Arthur Ollis, the Brigadier asks him "Did you find a way in?" This is not Nicholas Courtney's voice for this one line. He speaks again right after that and it is his voice. (00:13:20)
Revealing mistake: In the last part, the giant robot steps on a soldier. There are several things wrong with this scene. 1) You can see the matte halo around the robot's foot. 2) The robot does not leave a footprint. And 3), after the soldier gets squashed, his arm is visible waving over the robot's foot.
Revealing mistake: Matte halos appear very frequently in this episode, particularly when descending into the mine shaft.
Revealing mistake: When Jo and the Doctor are rowing through the maggot lake, several times parts of the actor's arms disappear.
Character mistake: When the Brigade Leader shoots the Primord, he noticeably closes his eye. He is supposed to be a high ranking well trained officer.
Castrovalva - S19-E1
Deliberate mistake: The newly regenerated Fifth Doctor is wearing completely different shoes than the Fourth Doctor did in the previous story. This is deliberate. The boots worn by the Fourth Doctor were actually privately owned by actor Tom Baker. Still, a mistake but this is why.
The Sontaran Experiment - S12-E3
Continuity mistake: In Episode 2, when the Doctor calls Harry from the Control Room and Harry enters the room next to the Cryogenic Chamber, there is an oblong yellow panel next to the door. It extends from about Harry's waist line to about 200mm below the top of the door. But in Episode 3, when Noah calls Vira from the control room part way into his transformation, and everyone runs into the adjacent room, the panel is mounted differently. It now extends from about Harry's mid-torso, to the top of the door frame. (00:03:35 - 00:09:32)
Continuity mistake: In "The Deadly Assassin" the Doctor's blood is red but in "State of Decay" his blood is suddenly dark blue. Then it's back to being red in "The Two Doctors."
The Creature from the Pit - S17-E3
Plot hole: In part 2 it's brought up in conversation several times that all metal is rare on that planet. Handy exposition for the viewers, but it's in fact a really odd thing for the characters to say. The inhabitants aren't giving a tour of their planet (certainly not deliberately at any rate), so why would they state facts that have been well known to them all of their lives? It's a bit like meeting strangers and informing them that two thirds of the Earth are covered by oceans.
Answer: TARDISes are generally available for properly authorised use on Gallifrey; they're not usually assigned to a particular Timelord on a long-term basis. The Doctor stole his when he left his homeworld.
