Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: During the scene with the guitarist in the bar, his glass is more full or less full between shots - easy to tell when in some shots the ice cubes pop on the surface and in others they have melted completely. (00:22:25)

Death in Paradise (2011)

Episode #4.5 - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: Throughout the whole first interview with the band, the pretentious guitarist, co-songwriter and whatnot (Pete Thunders) keeps having different positions leaning against the door or not, and his beer bottle switches hand repeatedly for no reason. If sometimes that is technically possible (but unlikely) due to brief cutaway shots, other times it is not (such as when Vince Thuram says "this is my place). (00:09:00)
