The Impossible Astronaut - S6-E2
Continuity mistake: When the alien kills Joy in the bathroom in front of Amy, the fragments of her body disappear from the floor once the alien approaches Amy. (00:28:28)
The Impossible Astronaut - S6-E2
Continuity mistake: When the Doctor is shot and killed while trying to regenerate on the beach, he falls with both legs extended. When River, Amy and Rory run up to him his left leg is bent. The camera cuts away again, and when it cuts back to show the Doctor's body one more time both legs are straight again. In addition, his left arm changes position between shots, between stretched out pointing away from his body on close-ups to bent with his hand resting on his thigh in wider shots. (00:08:15)
The Impossible Astronaut - S6-E2
Visible crew/equipment: Just after Amy comes out of the bathroom, a boom mic can be seen popping up behind the agent's shoulder. (00:28:55)
The Impossible Astronaut - S6-E2
Revealing mistake: When the Doctor is struck by the green light emitted from the astronaut, his right thigh momentarily disappears due to the animation. (This is even more visible when looking at the still of this shot on the Doctor Who website). (00:07:06)
The Impossible Astronaut - S6-E2
Audio problem: When the Doctor sits in the Oval Office chair, Secret Service Agents aim their revolvers at him. As they do, the sound of a pistol slide racking is heard. None of them are doing anything except raising and aiming their revolvers at him.
The Impossible Astronaut - S6-E2
Continuity mistake: When the Doctor goes to take off the spacesuit helmet, his hands change position between shots. (00:32:53)
The Impossible Astronaut - S6-E2
Continuity mistake: When the Doctor asks Rory if everyone's cross with him for some reason, his left arm moves from by his side in a close-up shot of him to stretched out to the console in a shot from behind. (00:15:06)
The Impossible Astronaut - S6-E2
Continuity mistake: When the school bus pulls up to drop Amy and Rory off in Monument Valley, there are no other vehicles in the area. When the bus pulls away, the Doctor has suddenly appeared with a vintage station wagon, parked by the side of the road where it should have been perfectly visible. And he was sitting on the hood, implying he'd been waiting there for a bit. (00:02:45)
The Impossible Astronaut - S6-E2
Continuity mistake: When the Doctor starts walking over to the lakeshore after the astronaut appears, he's still holding the wine bottle in his right hand. In the next shot where we can see his hand, the bottle is gone, without him having stopped to put it down. (00:06:34)
The Impossible Astronaut - S6-E2
Other mistake: After River shoots at the astronaut going into the lake, she drops her arm. The next second, she turns around and the gun is holstered without her having made any movement to do so, and there was no sound made.
Suggested correction: The holster is low enough for the subtle movement her right arm makes to be using it. As for the sound, the removal of her gun doesn't make a sound either. The only sound heard is directly before it when she put her medical scanner away.
The Impossible Astronaut - S6-E2
Visible crew/equipment: The astronaut coming out of the lake is twice in series 6: In episode 1, "The Impossible Astronaut", and in episode 13, "The Wedding of River Song." In "The Wedding of River Song", when the helmet of the suit is lifted the astronaut is revealed to be River Song. However, in "The Impossible Astronaut", when the helmet was lifted, a man's beard can be seen. Clearly the use of a double to avoid giving the reveal away too early.
