It's Your Funeral - S1-E11

Audio problem: During the scene when Number 6 warns Number 2 of a potential assassination attempt on him Number 2 brushes it off and says "it's the little watchmaker that concerns you" but his mouth does not match this. (00:29:43)

Hammer into Anvil - S1-E10

Visible crew/equipment: When Number 6 is listening to classical music in the listening booth, each time he puts his head into the booth (after switching records) there is a specific shot behind his shoulder where you can see the heads of two crew members reflected in the glass of the listening booth. This happens 3 times and is very visible on Blu-ray. (00:10:33)

Checkmate - S1-E9

Visible crew/equipment: When Number 6 and Number 2 are observing the fate of "the rebel rook", who is being subjected to Pavlovian mind control treatment, there is a moment when the shadow of the boom microphone can be seen cast on the wall at the top-centre of the screen and bobs around for a while. When Number 6 says "you must be proud of yourself." (00:14:36)

The Schizoid Man - S1-E5

Revealing mistake: When Alison enters Number 2's chamber we see a POV shot of Number 6, Number 2 and the doppelgänger facing the camera. If you look closely you can see jittery lines at various points on the screen were the two Number 6's have been poorly overlaid. (00:26:24)

The Schizoid Man - S1-E5

Revealing mistake: When Number 6 lights up a cigar with the other Number 6 you can see by watching the cigar smoke that there is an exact point on the screen where the cigar smoke cannot travel beyond, revealing that there are two shots being overlaid. (00:16:41)
