The Third Floor Flat - S1-E5

Other mistake: At the very end of the episode, Miss Lemon stops talking as if she could see Poirot glaring at her above the newspaper - while in fact, he is facing the other way.

The Third Floor Flat - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: Once Poirot hypothesises that the lightbulb could have been replaced, he curls back his finger pointed at the young fellas. New shot, and he is back pointing fingers. (00:18:45)

Murder in the Dark - S1-E12

Factual error: When Mr. Butler takes the hashish-laced cake, "It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing) " is playing, composed in 1931, later than the 1928 setting.

Murder in the Mews - S1-E2

Audio problem: In an empty golf course, at such a close distance as shown, there's no way Miss Plenderlieth would not hear Hastings calling Poirot, who "lost another ball." (00:41:20)

Sammo ★

Murder in the Dark - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: When cousin Guy tells Miss Fisher "You like your meat tender too", Isabella is sipping from the drink she lowered in the previous shot. (00:32:00)

Sammo ★

Four and Twenty Blackbirds - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: Hastings carries the picture of the two brothers from Dulce to Poirot holding it by the bottom, top, side, depending on the angle. (00:13:45)

Sammo ★

King Memses' Curse - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: When Miss Fisher asks Dot to help her get out of jail, she is holding on to the bars in the close-up, but not in the wider angle. (00:34:10)

Sammo ★

Murder in the Dark - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: When Miss Fisher as Cleopatra loosens Jack's tie, what remains of the knot is different in the separate shots. (00:38:25)

Death at Victoria Dock - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: When Miss Fisher tends to the fatal wound of the victim, she slips one glove off, using it to plug the hole in his chest. She suddenly then has both gloves off. Even assuming the montage implies a lengthier amount of time elapsed, when she takes the box from the dying guy her hand is all bloodied up, but it shows much cleaner in the following shot. (00:03:40)

Plot hole: Obviously, tooth fairies are real, in this movie at least. During the movie, Derek has to retrieve each child's tooth and put money under the pillow. He's paged as soon as the kid loses the tooth, since he often has to wait till the kid goes to bed before intervening, and he is required to do it as soon as possible. But parents are doing the same, and at one point in the movie Derek actually stops a dad that just did the swap and extorts the tooth from him. That of course creates a parodox: the majority of parents in the world apparently have been subjected for centuries to the freak occurrence of finding already under their pillows mysterious money and their children's baby teeth missing as they go do the deed themselves. You can't have both the fairy and the parent do the same task.

Continuity mistake: When the Rock enters the first kid's room, pay attention to the blue building block on the floor and how it is turned. Just for the shots where the cat arrives and The Rock has to hide behind it, the block rotated 90°. It goes back to how it was a moment later, otherwise the curved path would not face the door and the Rock couldn't fly towards the door. (00:33:30 - 00:36:15)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Right as The Rock lands in the Tooth Fairy world for the first time in his dazzling tutu, one of the first fairies that cross his path is a black fairy, moving from what would be The Rock's right to his left. In the next shot he's all the way to the Rock's right. In general in the scene there's a lot of extra recycling, a Hispanic fairy with heavy makeup and big cheekbones, quite recognizable, that keeps advancing behind The Rock without ever really moving. (00:11:55)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: The Rock is goofing around with his fiancee's little girl playing a vampire. Randy scoffs and goes to open the fridge. In the first shot he's reaching for both doors, in the closer shot he is opening just one, brief cutaway shot and then he's re-opening the same door. (00:05:35)

The Green Mill Murder - S1-E3

Plot hole: Talking about the murder weapon, the coroner says that the wound was a "horizontal" stab. Nerine's confession is ruled out because she mimics the attack at an angle. Funnily enough though, during interrogation, Jack himself makes a remark about the stage being a spot overseeing the room, and the killer was in fact on stage, and standing. When we see briefly the flashback of the murder, it's clear that the trumpet is way above the head of everyone dancing. So the projectile wound would hardly be "horizontal."

Sammo ★

The Green Mill Murder - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: During the interrogation of Mr. Rogers, the distance between the trumpet and the mute constantly changes between shots. And when he says "So what? Doesn't prove a thing!", Miss Fisher is holding her hand on top of the mute, instead of having her arms folded. (00:49:40 - 00:51:00)

Sammo ★

The Green Mill Murder - S1-E3

Plot hole: The murder weapon during Miss Fisher's demonstration hardly appears to generate enough momentum not just to send a projectile across the room with lethal force, but also do it achieving full penetration through clothes, disappearing entirely inside the body so the coroner wouldn't notice. That's assuming that the coroner did not even bother to in fact open up the cadaver and perform autopsy, which would be strange, especially with a weapon of undisclosed characteristics, when finding out more about the depth and damage to internal organs would have been crucial. And with any autopsy the dart would have been found, solving the case almost immediately. (00:49:45)

The Green Mill Murder - S1-E3

Audio problem: When Miss Fisher is interrogating Stone and asks him "What's the matter Mr. Stone..." he's gulping down his liquor. She finishes the sentence ("cat got your tongue?") in a separate shot, and the sound of him just putting down the glass is heard. But if you look at the little bit of him that is poking in the foreground, he's puffing smoke instead. Kinda hard to do that with a mouthful of whiskey. (00:31:40)

Sammo ★

The Green Mill Murder - S1-E3

Factual error: When the compromising pictures of the lovers in bed are shown, it's also shown that some are taken in rapid succession, with Charles noticing, covering up, charging at the camera. All this quickfire shutter action would be really too much advanced paparazzi tech for the 20s! In the same episode Miss Fisher gets her mugshot taken and it's taken with a big and clunky camera. (00:20:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Gargamel finds out of the smurf he captured is Smurfette. She grabs the bars of the cage, but the position of the door hinges changes, switching from her right to her left, back and forth. (00:13:35)

Sammo ★

The Green Mill Murder - S1-E3

Character mistake: Miss Fisher is shown tumbling her way into Leonard's apartment in a less than graceful manner, with a rather audible thump, and rolling on the floor and to her feet making quite a ruckus. Despite that, Bobby, who is presumed to be alert and on edge since he's breaking and entering, is completely oblivious of her presence. (00:16:30)
