Lucifer, Stay. Good Devil. - S1-E2
Other mistake: Despite the presence of multiple paparazzi on site while a civilian opens a police car, drags the main murder suspect out of it for some rough questioning and generally creates a suspicious scene, nothing about it leaks in the news (one guy even takes picture of the other side of the road!).
20th Sep 2019
Other mistake: Throughout the episode, Lucifer's car has a California license plate - but that is, just one. He is missing the one in the front. In the following episode the car does have the regular 2 plates, and when he is pulled over at the beginning (and keeps being around cops all the time), nobody raises an eyebrow at the violation of the code.
19th Sep 2019
Other mistake: When Mrs. Brahms is talking to Mr. Granger, Wendy Richards' voice cracks stifling laughter when she says "Mrs. Slocombe didn't like to take down your trousers without asking you first." (00:18:00)
19th Sep 2019
Camping In - S1-E4
Other mistake: The episode takes place on March 2nd, 1973 (date of the newspaper shown by Mr. Mash), but in Mr. Rumbold's office the sale chart for the month of March is already fully filled up.
19th Sep 2019
Other mistake: This adaptation opens with a nice fake Pathe Gazette news reel. The voice says that "last year" Farley sold a record 5 million pies, and that the new wing of the plant is due to open. At the inauguration, there's a banner behind him saying "1885-1935" and he's saying that in 1935 they sold more pies than at any point in their history, and he gives the kind of speech you give at the beginning of a year, trying to set a new record while still on the hot trail of the previous. At the same time, Miss Lemon tells Hastings that the typewriter broke 'last Easter' and she burst out with Poirot that she has been complaining 'for the last six months', which would put the event at the end of the year.
19th Sep 2019
Other mistake: The man in front of Poirot in the line to embark argues supposedly in Italian with the officer: he does it in broken Italian but trying to pronounce informal words (even an incredibly explicit and vulgar curse at the end!) with unnatural cadence and a very thick Spanish accent. (00:28:30)
18th Sep 2019
Other mistake: Miss Lemon reminds Poirot of the dentist appointment he has at 11. Poirot then receives a phone call from Japp. It turns out during the investigation that the police broke into the apartment at 10:45. Considering that at least a preliminary examination needed to be made and at the time of the phone call Japp was in his office and Poirot was still comfortably having his tisane, everything leads to believe that the dentist appointment should have been later in the day (or the events at the Mews sooner). (00:03:30)
12th Sep 2019
Other mistake: Pilot episode Mr. Lucas is holding the mannequin together with Miss Brahms. Mr. Grainger walks by and is appalled by the state of undress of the figure and says "Well, it's hardly sufficient, is it?" You can see the camera getting randomly out of focus in a bad, noticeable way. (00:03:20)
12th Sep 2019
Other mistake: Jackie and Yuen assault the first bikers very fast and suddenly: despite that and the presence of crazy bikers roaming the place, a huge crowd had already time to assemble in mere seconds making an orderly circle around them, no empty spots, to witness the fight and the breath-taking stunt filmed in the wide shot. (00:16:40)
12th Sep 2019
Other mistake: At the end of the episode, the clock Poirot presents to Miss Lemon is pointed exactly at 3:28, which would be the time of the murder in the original novel, not in this adaption, when it was changed to 12:28.
12th Sep 2019
Other mistake: When Noah and Kevin go to the hardware store, the sign says "Calahan." In the end credits roll, Lexi Atkins' character is "Allie Callahan", 2 Ls. (00:06:05 - 01:23:10)
9th Sep 2019
Other mistake: Every time you retrieve a part of Dracula, the message on screen misspells the word "Possess", giving you messages such as "you now prossess Dracula's rib."
7th Sep 2019
Other mistake: Principal Dwight and Vice principal Stricker are fanatics of the rules and try to enforce them at all times with no mercy. However, when we can peek at the rulebook in Rafe's transcript, rule 52 says "only white, grey, khaki and navy", which if true would outlaw practically half of the kids we see at school wearing pink or yellow (yet they don't get scolded). (00:32:05)
7th Sep 2019
Other mistake: When Rafe arrives at the new school, principal Dwight has his arms full of items he confiscated when the morning has not even started yet, very specific and obvious rule-breakers like a skate, 2 footballs and a basketball. So did some dudes just start playing ball and shooting hoops in front of the principal at 8 am in the middle of the street? Who are those rebels? There's no trace of rule defiance early in the movie. (00:06:30)
7th Sep 2019
Other mistake: When Hastings pulls Poirot's slip of paper out of his pocket, he's reading it upside down - as you can see from the close-up, the torn up part should be at the bottom, not at the top. (00:11:40)
6th Sep 2019
Other mistake: Aladdin slices off one head of the monster in the tomb. The body spurts copious amounts of blood and the severed head even bounces on him repeatedly, but Aladdin's shirt is immaculate afterwards. (00:04:40)
6th Sep 2019
Other mistake: In the opening credits, "Cameraman" is mispelled as "Camerman."
5th Sep 2019
Other mistake: At the very end of the episode, Miss Lemon stops talking as if she could see Poirot glaring at her above the newspaper - while in fact, he is facing the other way.
30th Aug 2019
Other mistake: The program the couple receives at dinner the first day has 6am marked as "Couples skill building", followed at 9am by "Dr. Marcel's activity." But all their mornings begin with Marcel's activity.
28th Aug 2019
Other mistake: The clock on the lounge's desk signals the same time for the whole scene's duration (when the girls spot the strange woman waiting outside), which lasts much longer than a minute. (00:08:20 - 00:09:50)
