The Bridge of Lions Affair (2)

Mistake Factual error: The title of Act II, "Thrush Flaps It's Wings," is misspelled/mispunctuated. The possessive "its" does not take an apostrophe, so it should read, "Thrush Flaps Its Wings."

The Foreign Legion Affair

Mistake Continuity: When Solo begins trying to seduce the dancing girl with the line, "We shall taste paradise," he's standing at least a foot away from her. But in the very next shot, they're suddenly in a clinch: her hands are on his cheeks and they're about to kiss.

Mistake Other: Aboard the plane in the beginning, Illya calls to report in, and forgets his own secret agent number. He tells the communicator, "This is Number 2 Section 1." This is a little like James Bond suddenly calling himself Double-O-Six. Illya worked for Section 2, and was always Number 2 Section 2. Maybe that's just what happens when you're a TV spy and get hit over the head too many times.

Mistake Continuity: The woman sent to Solo's cell with food has two red jewels hanging from her headband onto her forehead. But after Solo finishes the meal, she suddenly has only one jewel attached to the headband.

The Moonglow Affair

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: During Arthur's argument with his sister over the guest list, the boom shadow moves across the wall at the upper left of the screen.

Mistake Revealing: Miss Moonglow's lipstick supposedly glows in the dark. But when the lights go out, a badly superimposed special effect causes the glowing lips to remain completely stationary, even when she doesn't. Her head moves, but weirdly, the lips don't.

The Nowhere Affair

Mistake Continuity: Langolius' cigarette in the long black holder disappears between takes as he picks up Solo's dossier to examine it.

Mistake Continuity: The ghost town's saloon is draped with huge spider webs when Solo explores it. But the ghosts obviously have a cleaning service. When Illya arrives later, there's nary a web in sight.

The King of Diamonds Affair

Mistake Continuity: At the end, Mr. Waverly puts his newspaper down on the table and prepares to get up. When the shot cuts to a longer view, he puts the paper down again before rising.

Mistake Continuity: Stock footage strikes again. Delgado's plane changes from a blue and white 1960s aircraft to a 1950s-style silver prop job when it lands.

Mistake Continuity: Illya removes his shoes, leaves them on the ground and climbs the guard tower barefooted. But in the following shots, his shoes have reappeared on his feet.

Mistake Continuity: When Solo and Miss Pogue are trapped in the shipping crate together, his hair combs itself between takes - several times. It's all over his forehead, then is suddenly neatly combed to one side, then is messy again. When the crate is opened, he's well-groomed once more.

Mistake Continuity: Delgado's plane makes a bumpy landing (without a runway) and skids to a stop in the Brazilian jungle, surrounded by palm trees. But when everyone gets off, the plane is suddenly parked in the midst of an industrial compound with buildings all around it, and no palm trees in sight.

Mistake Revealing: When Solo and Illya, posing as maintenance workers on the London street, are opening the manhole to go underground, two cars - a blue VW hatchback and a white roadster - pass them twice going in opposite directions each time. And while most of the cars are driving appropriately on the left, one pulls up behind them driving on the right (which is to say, wrong) side of the road.

The Project Deephole Affair

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When Waverly and Solo walk from the office into the corridor at U.N.C.L.E. HQ, part of the camera rig is showing, moving ahead of them, at the bottom right of the screen.

Mistake Continuity: When Solo is escorting Narcissus downstairs, they go through a door that's hinged on the right and opens inward into the stairwell. Cut to them entering, and the door is now hinged on the opposite side and has opened outward into the hall.

The Round Table Affair

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: As the bus door is pulled shut at the end, the glass in its window captures the reflection of a big round studio light.

Mistake Factual error: Artie refers to Illya as "an American citizen abroad," and Illya agrees, apparently forgetting that he isn't. (He's a Russian citizen.).

The Batcave Affair

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When Zark uncovers the caged bat and shows it to Illya, the shadow of the boom mike sweeps across the back wall.

The Minus-X Affair

Mistake Other: Waverly asks Illya to move the map on the display screen more to the left. Illya touches a button, and the map moves - to the right.
