Downton Abbey (2010)

Episode #1.7 - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: Near the end of the episode with the garden party, there is a scene where Edith is pleading with Anthony Strallan not to leave. You can see Lady Grantham lying down on a lounge chair in the background, with a man who is distinctively Lord Grantham standing next to her talking to her. But the scene immediately cuts to Lady Grantham, her maid O'Brien walks over and Robert is nowhere to be seen.

Speak (2004)

Continuity mistake: When the teacher is explaining Symbolism, she writes it on the chalk board. She then turns her back to it and talks to the class. The camera pans to the class but when we turn back to the teacher there are now 2 lines under the word 'Symbolism' that were not there before. We would have heard the chalk noise if she'd written them while out of shot.

Scarce (2008)

Continuity mistake: When the first guy out of the main 3 is dragged to the hunting range (after having his spine exposed and meat cut off), he falls backwards into the snow and when he sort of rolls over, there is snow all over his exposed backbone and flesh but when he stumbles and gets up, there is no evidence of snow whatsoever.

Secret Cutting (2000)

Continuity mistake: After Dawn cuts herself in the basement when Lorraine catches her, she cuts on the underside of her arm, but when they go to Maths and her teacher sees the blood seeping through her shirt, the blood is coming from the top side. The position of blood is totally inconsistent with the wound.

Secret Cutting (2000)

Continuity mistake: When Dawn goes to see Dr. Parella when she has the urge to cut with the piece of mirror, she cuts in the stairwell and then throws the piece of mirror on the floor. There is a distinct smashing sound that would indicate the glass has been shattered, however when Dr. Parella goes to the stairwell, the piece of glass is completely intact.
