Jean G

Continuity mistake: Solo and Illya watch as the gas chamber is lowered from the ceiling. In front view, they're standing just inches apart. But in all the reverse angles, they're more than a foot from each other. (00:31:10)

10th Jul 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

The Foreign Legion Affair - S2-E22

Continuity mistake: 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. (00:29:15)

9th Jul 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

Audio problem: A member of Kingsley's army asks if Solo had a pleasant rest after the captured agent wakes up. But the man's line is partially obliterated by a loud pop and a sound drop-out. (00:13:40)

The Seven Wonders of the World Affair (1) - S4-E15

9th Jul 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

Revealing mistake: Illya flies a helicopter to the Himalayas in search of Solo, and at the same time, Kingsley's men are loading an unconscious Solo into another copter. Not only do the two helicopters look suspiciously similar - they have the exact same registration number: N73959. (00:44:40 - 00:46:30)

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

The Five Daughters Affair (2) - S3-E29

Factual error: Somehow, Thrush lands its big jumbo jet at the polar ice cap. In the snow. Without a runway. (00:33:05)

9th Jul 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

Visible crew/equipment: When Solo is being marched out to face the firing squad, the shadows of the camera crew are captured twice on the white pillars surrounding Kingsley's swimming pool. (00:20:15)

9th Jul 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

Audio problem: Kingsley is ordering Harmon to go ahead and hold the executions - but his voice is so badly overdubbed that his line is almost unintelligible. (00:23:40)

9th Jul 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

The Five Daughters Affair (1) - S3-E28

Continuity mistake: No one seems to know which daughter is which. Margo is named daughter number 2 in Act II's title, but the dialogue calls her daughter number 1. Act III's title says Imogen is number 3, while the dialogue refers to her as number 2. (00:12:30 - 00:26:45)

3rd Jul 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

The Five Daughters Affair (2) - S3-E29

Continuity mistake: On the ground, the mini-jet has a large yellow U.N.C.L.E. logo on its nose. In the air, the logo keeps disappearing, and the plane's tail assembly changes configurations. (00:00:10 - 00:01:35)

The Concrete Overcoat Affair (2) - S3-E12

30th Jun 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

Revealing mistake: Solo's boat is blown up by Strago's new superweapon. But stock footage used for the explosion is a little too obvious: the picture abruptly changes from color to black-and-white. (00:14:30)

The Concrete Overcoat Affair (2) - S3-E12

30th Jun 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

Visible crew/equipment: When the captured Illya is brought into Strago's conference room, the boom shadow is lurking on the curved wall over their heads. (00:12:00)

The Concrete Overcoat Affair (2) - S3-E12

30th Jun 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

Visible crew/equipment: When Miss Diketon walks in on Strago trying to make time with Pia, the boom shadow is moving on the wall behind his head. (00:10:55)

The Concrete Overcoat Affair (1) - S3-E11

29th Jun 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

Continuity mistake: When an undercover Illya carries the wine boxes into Strago's vineyard, the bottom box has a dark brown striation under the word "Chicago." This disappears and reappears, then disappears again as the scene progresses. (00:20:40)

The Concrete Overcoat Affair (1) - S3-E11

29th Jun 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

Continuity mistake: The recuperating Solo has a towel on his forehead. But as he's telling Pia his name, the towel disappears between shots. (00:19:20)

The Concrete Overcoat Affair (1) - S3-E11

29th Jun 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

Continuity mistake: Solo and Illya, chasing a Thrush agent, are driving a white Dodge. When their car overturns, it not only turns blue, it changes into another model of car altogether. (00:02:35)

27th Jun 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

Continuity mistake: Illya's shirt tail is hanging out when he heads for the window to use his home-made slingshot, but has tucked itself back in a few shots later, when he climbs out the window. (00:39:15)

27th Jun 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

Continuity mistake: Illya's shoe converts to an improbable electric drill. He inserts a foot-long drill bit (and just where was he hiding that when the baddies searched him?) into the flat of the heel. But when he starts drilling at the bars, the bit is sticking out of the side of the shoe instead. (00:21:15)

27th Jun 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

Continuity mistake: In long shot, the helicopter Solo is flying hovers in a cloudless, clear blue sky. In close-ups of him in the cockpit, however, the sky outside the copter's window-bubble is full of clouds. (00:15:05)

27th Jun 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

Plot hole: Coco asks Illya if he knew she was going to be kidnapped, and he says "At that point, I didn't even know you existed." Strange answer. He and Solo met her outside the observatory several minutes before the kidnapping, so he did know she existed. (00:20:30)

25th Jun 2006

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964)

The Galatea Affair - S3-E3

Plot hole: Thrush is so efficient. They divine exactly what Rosy will be wearing on the day they plan to switch her with her double, and they duplicate every last stitch - long before they've ever seen her. (00:18:20 - 00:19:25)
