Soft Light - S2-E23

Plot hole: If the shadow acts like a black hole and tears apart all atoms that enter it why does it only seem to affect people (but also their clothing and anything else on them)? Surely Dr Banton would be destroying everything around him.

Conduit - S1-E4

Revealing mistake: At The Beginning of the episode Darlene burns her hand trying to open the door, she then puts on an oven mitt and opens the door. If you look closely though she still uses her other naked hand as well as the covered hand to open the door and her naked hand is completely unhurt.

Visible crew/equipment: When Kitano approaches the girl in the forest to give her an umbrella you can see a microphone positioned between them. It looks like they angled the shot so it would be hidden by the actress' body. (01:24:30)

Visible crew/equipment: When Goose is interrogating the stoned biker he turns around and says "Take your time Charlie, we've got plenty of it", when he turns you can see the feet of the camera operator reflected in his glasses. It cannot be the other policeman as he is in the other room.
