Red mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Frank meets Sarah in the flesh for the first time, she throws numerous items at him. When she picks up a candle holder and throws the candles at him, a third of one of the candles remains stuck to the holder. After Frank tells Sarah, that people are trying to kill them, Sarah replies "Why would anyone want to kill me?" In this shot, the third of the candle is currently on the right hand side of the candle holder. Then when Sarah says "Why?" after Frank says they've been listening to their conversations, the third of the candle is now on the left side of the candle holder. (00:12:05)

Continuity mistake: After Frank injects the assassin, the syringe injected into his neck is horizontal. However, when one of the assassins shoots a grenade inside, the same assassin that Frank injected now has the syringe in a vertical position. Frank never moved the syringe, nor could anyone else since they were dead. (00:08:00 - 00:09:30)

The Builders - S1-E2

Revealing mistake: When Basil smashes Manuel against the wall where the dining room is meant to be, we can see it is made out of cardboard. Notice how it begins to fall off, even though it is meant to be sealed and covered in wallpaper. (00:16:05)

Suggested correction: Perhaps this was due to O'Reilly's shoddy workmanship?

You could say that but Fawlty towers had wobbly sets all the time. I would say this would be covered under "mistakes".

Codswallop. O'Reilly manages to do a half decent job. This is just a wobbly set.

Ssiscool

Where is the 'codswallop' as you so euphemistically put it? To me it looks like O'Reilly cut corners by shoddily placing a sheet of plasterboard in the doorway without attaching it well then shoddily wallpapering over it. Hence the reason for it falling out.

The Shooting Star - S2-E1

Audio problem: Tintin places part of the meteorite on the raft. When it lands, it makes a sound as if it landed on a wooden floor. The raft is made of plastic and has air in it. Not the landing sound you'd expect. (00:20:15)

Continuity mistake: There is a shot of the meteorite and Tintin jumping onto it. In this shot he is approaching 4 meters away from the meteorite. Yet in the shot after a crew member of Peary yells "Pull, pull", Tintin is then seen approaching 4 meters to the meteorite a second time. (00:16:00)

The Shooting Star - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: After the Peary financier says "The Aurora will not reach the meteorite", the scene cuts back to the Aurora sailing through a storm. In this shot, the name "Aurora" is visible on the side of the side. Yet by the end of this scene, and the camera is in front of the boat, the name "Aurora" isn't visible on the front of the ship. (00:10:35 - 00:11:55)
