The Healer - S7-E4
Continuity mistake: Inspecting the body, Jack and Dwayne crouch by the victim. Dwayne repeats the action in the close-up, and his right hand is turned a different way between shots. (00:06:30)
Continuity mistake: When Jack realises the obvious and waves the calling card around, he's holding it in a different way between shots, with the thumb in the upper corner as he shouts "I know who Otis Falconer is." (00:41:25)

Continuity mistake: When Florence reads the morning note left by the victim, in close-up she's holding it in a different way than in the following view; from one hand it goes to both hands, and the Bic pen in the second shot passes between index and middle, not the case in close-up. (00:06:35)
Continuity mistake: On the beach after identifying the murder weapon as a knife, Jack walks off and says that there are 1,000 ways to kill a man.

(00:06:00)
Continuity mistake: Officer Dwayne Myers pulls the shades from the sock; he is holding them in a different way between shot and reverse (fingers on the lens vs fingers on the hinge). (00:12:00)

Continuity mistake: When Jack speaks to Florence about his ambiguous intention to spend some quality time with the Commissioner, he changes position in between shots, with his excited fist raised while his left hand disappears from sight. (00:15:10)

Murder on the Day of the Dead - S7-E5

Continuity mistake: During the toast, Gilly White staggers for a moment. As different camera angles alternate, she is holding the champagne glass either sticking a finger out or not. (00:01:45)
Continuity mistake: Dwayne's bushy cover has been blown, so he nonchalantly walks out and greets the stern-looking Audrey. He opens his arms when he says her name, but in the reverse shot he repeats the movement, as he was still pretending to scribble on his pad. (00:14:00)
Episode #1.1 - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: After the chat with the hotel manager, Jack and Florence are in Stephen's room. The level of drink in Stephen Marston's cocktail glass changes between shots - it's half full when Jack is straining to sit down, and is back up right at the cut. (00:35:25)
Continuity mistake: DI Jack Mooney is looking at the coroner report on the PC screen. He changes his stance and is initially hunched over and then straight, but the person in the foreground is keeping the exact same posture every time the camera cuts to Dwayne. (00:25:35)
