Maigret (1992)

The Patience of Maigret - S1-E1

Other mistake: A newspaper headline reads "MAIGRET tient t'il enfin le tueur?" This makes no sense in French. It should read "MAIGRET tient-il enfin le tueur?" ("Does Maigret have the killer at last?"). (00:27:55)

Grantchester (2014)

Episode #1.3 - S1-E3

Other mistake: The publican asks for payment for some drinks, saying "One and six, please", meaning one shilling and sixpence. The subtitles say "One-o-six, please."

Doctor Who (2005)

Other mistake: Assange and Berg are talking to each other on Skype, and we see Assange and the view of him on Berg's screen at the same time. Even allowing for a delay, the orientation of Assange's head and his mouth movements don't correspond with those on screen. (00:29:40)

Push (2009)

Other mistake: In the DVD bonus feature "Science Behind the Fiction", director Paul McGuigan describes says he typed "psychic powers experiments" into a search engine. This is illustrated with a computer display on which the text being typed reads "pychic powers experiments."

Spooks (2002)

Episode #8.8 - S8-E8

Other mistake: Tariq has been tasked with finding hotel guests who share their surnames with American presidents. His computer screen is shown with the search in progress. The surname "Bush" appears twice (two presidents, but only one surname), and the counts for the two entries are different. In addition, the name "Truman" is misspelled as "Trueman." (00:28:15)

Doctor Who (2005)

The Doctor's Daughter - S4-E6

Other mistake: Martha falls into the bog and Hath Peck rushes down to help her. She calls out "Help me, Peck!" but the subtitles read "Help me peg!" This is just one of many errors in this series' subtitles, which seem to have been added by listening to the dialogue without reference to the script. (00:26:30)
