Revealing mistake: When Matilda telepathically makes the TV explode, you can see what looks like parts of an explosive hidden behind the screen.
Suggested correction: Clearly no sign of it.
Suggested correction: When the TV set explodes, it's a close-up of the screen and no device is seen.

Suggested correction: There is no view of the explosive.
