Episode #3.2 - S3-E2

DI Humphrey Goodman: Hook-a-duck.
DS Camille Bordey: What-a-what?
DI Humphrey Goodman: Hook-a-duck. Every summer when I was growing up, a funfair would pitch up on the village green. There'd be a carousel and a ghost train and hook-a-duck. It's those little rubber ducks bobbing around on a paddling pool. You had to try and hook them with a little fishing rod and if you got the one with the star on its bottom, you won the most fantastic prize.
DS Camille Bordey: A-ha...what was the prize?
DI Humphrey Goodman: A goldfish. In a plastic bag.
DS Camille Bordey: You had a very dull childhood, didn't you?
DI Humphrey Goodman: Every year, I'd hook a duck
DS Camille Bordey: No star?
DI Humphrey Goodman: Not once.
DS Camille Bordey: HOW is that AT ALL relevant?
DI Humphrey Goodman: Probability. See, the odds were stacked against me. As are the odds stacked against the murderer killing his intended victim. (00:09:50)

And I was upset for weeks, months even.
DS Camille Bordey: Sir, Aimee was my friend, not a pet. That's different.
DI Richard Poole: No, no, of course, I was, I mean, that was just sort of just trying to show you I understand and can be supportive.
DS Camille Bordey: Yeah, well, you don't really seem to have any friends, so I'm not sure how you could possibly understand.

Episode #3.8 - S3-E8

Other mistake: The timestamps on the CCTV screenshots indicate that the murder happened in early March (since they are from early February and they go back one month), but March already passed in previous episodes of the same season (gigolo calendar, bank statements). (00:29:00)

Continuity mistake: Tech-savy Jim is asked to fix the wi-fi in the intro of the episode. With a shark-like grin Pam Chandler replies he'll be "only too happy to help", and raises above her bosom the hand with the sunglasses.
