Episode #1.2 - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: The two investigators meet with Adam Fairs poolside. In the establishing shots there's a hotel staffer closing by, carrying a pile of towels. When Camille poses her question, the man is nowhere to be seen. (00:28:05)
Episode #1.2 - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: When Diane is reading the prenup, the envelope goes from the middle of the papers to the top then the bottom without being moved. (00:33:55)
Episode #1.2 - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: When Camille circles Adam on the whiteboard the circle is complete, however a few seconds later it's half rubbed out. (00:37:46)
Episode #1.2 - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: In the ending, Camille throws her bag in the sand; between shots said bag is in entirely different spots and with the strap first on the left, then on the right. (00:50:10)
Episode #1.2 - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: When Poole writes the S for suspects on the whiteboard, its design changes between shots.
Episode #1.3 - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: Both before and after the credits, there are differences between the wider shot and the close-ups of the dead woman in the way she is lit. The hat and her nose cast shadows of different length and angle. (00:02:05 - 00:02:35)
Episode #1.3 - S1-E3
Other mistake: Investigating the crime scene, Richard, facing away from Camille, asks what was the victim drinking. Camille is already going for the glass of rum before he asks the question. (00:03:00)
I hope that watching the scene it can be clear. Camille was busy taking some notes, and he is facing away from her. All of a sudden, he says "So, what was she drinking?" and while he is at "So" Camille is literally lunging to her side to go look at the glass. Neither had any possible way to get that kind of timing, and it's not played as a "Hey, we were both thinking the same thing! Jinx!" kind of gag.
Episode #1.3 - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: In the small scene with Fidel and Dwayne deciding who gets to do the fun stuff around the island, Gary Carr's right arm is bent or straight depending on the angle. (00:12:40)
Episode #1.3 - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: In the scene at Catherine's cafe, the lid on Richard's plastic bottle is off, on, off again. In the same part of the scene, the mug changes position between shots - its handle is pointing away from Richard or towards him, and when they ask him about voodoo, it even is alternatively in his hand or on the table depending on the angle, back and forth several times. (00:17:00)
Episode #1.3 - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: The principal admits his lie and brings the team to his real destination. At the entrance, Commissioner Selwyn Patterson's is standing with his hands behind his back, in front of him, and behind his back again at the cut. (00:23:20)
Episode #1.3 - S1-E3
Other mistake: Inside Angelique Morel's residence, Camille spots an altar with pictures of an unnamed girl and says "This must be Angelique's daughter, Delilah." They went straight to the murder scene and from there to that shack, without time to consult files. Nobody mentioned the name of the daughter.
Episode #1.4 - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: When Richard and the others get back to the police station after accompanying Mrs. Talbot to check her husband's body (or lack thereof), there's a cut to the jigsaw puzzle; it is recycled from the opening of the episode, because the shadows (including those cast by the window bars) are exactly the same. (00:00:10 - 00:06:20)
Episode #1.4 - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, Richard stirs his cup of tea with a spoon; in the close-up of the puzzle board the cup is still on the table, but in the frontal views he is reaching for it and putting the spoon in before the cut, and he has it in hand in the one after. (00:00:15)
Episode #1.4 - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: Poole and Camille take the confessed murderer to the beach. She is fainting, and Richard tells her "It's OK, it's OK." Camille is supporting her with one hand behind her back, which becomes one hand on her forearm in the reverse shot. (00:01:30)
Episode #1.4 - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: Richard asks the wife if it was unusual for the husband to get violent. She starts crying. Embarrassed, he hands her a handkerchief. When she is still seen from behind, notice her right arm; she lowers it, but in the next shot she is still sobbing in the theatrical pose she had before, hand on her forehead. (00:03:40)
Episode #1.4 - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: Megan grabs DI Richard Poole's hand sobbing "I'm scared." We're talking about her left hand, because in the right hand she's holding the handkerchief he gave her. When DS Camille Bordey butts in, she is clinging to his hand with her right, and holds the hankie in her left. It keeps happening even during the conversation. (00:03:55)
Episode #1.4 - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: Before he leaves with the suspect the house she is a guest in, Richard asks if they own a gun. Astrid answers "Of course we don't", both hands on her belly. Wider angle, and she has both arms relaxed down her sides. (00:12:15)
Episode #1.4 - S1-E4
Other mistake: The body has been completely immersed in the ocean, but it has streams of dried blood on the skin. Moreover, everyone talks about two shots and two wounds, one being a grazing shot that hit him on the left temple, but he has an unexplained gash to the right temple too. (00:14:30)
Episode #1.4 - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: Richard fills a glass with water and walks to his puzzle. Camille adds something, and within a cut his arm goes from an ascending to a descending motion without any time for him to drink in between. (00:17:20)
Episode #1.4 - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: The police crew is having beers to celebrate the alleged resolution of the case, but Richard is not convinced. During the scene, the beer bottles change position between shots - for instance when Fidel says "Maybe she was confused" he puts his hands on the bottle of Etensel, gone in the next shot with Camille piling on his objection - and in that shot even his hat on the table is facing the other way. In fact, throughout the scene his hat keeps rotating to different directions. (00:18:20)
