Merlin the Magician - S1-E27

Factual error: The Vikings in this episode are fighting while wearing horned helmets. Contrary to popular belief, Vikings never wore horned helmets in battle. Some theories state the horned helmets were worn during special ceremonies, but never in battle or daily life.

Common mistakes

Factual error: Trains that do not stop, but crash through objects on railroad tracks. Train engineers will hit the brakes of the train when they see anything or anyone on the tracks, and if they come in contact with said objects, will stop to investigate what they hit, and cooperate with local and Federal authorities. Two examples are "Back To the Future, Part III" and "Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry."

Continuity mistake: Outside the Inventing Room, Veruca and her father stand about a foot apart from each other, but the next quick shot shows Veruca standing in front of her dad's left arm.

Continuity mistake: When Augustus falls into the chocolate river, Wonka's right hand is resting on the top of his cane, which is planted in the ground, but the next shot shows his right arm up, and bent at the elbow.

Visible crew/equipment: There is a cameraman shooting near the gate of Wonka's factory: he is strategically placed to get up close shots shown in the movie yet he blends in to the crowd to make the movie audience think he is one of the many media technicians filming the event of Wonka opening his factory. Later, when the guests are passing through the gate, the cameraman has disappeared.

Suggested correction: The Cameraman is part of the news crew that was filming the event all around. Not a mistake.

The point being is that the cameramen in the crowd are part of Director Mel Stuart's film crew, getting angles and footage of the crowd for the movie without hiring additional crews to get the same shots.

The Death Merchant - S1-E25

Audio problem: At one point during Doug and Tony's hand to hand combat with the Union soldiers, the traditional Hollywood sound of a fist smack to the face is heard as Tony blocks a blow with his arm, instead of the sound of a thud.

The Death Merchant - S1-E25

Continuity mistake: When Tony begins fighting the Union soldier, Tony kicks the soldier's musket out of his hands and it lands to the right. The next overhead shot now shows the musket landed behind the soldier as Tony picks it up to fight another soldier.
