Episode #2.1 - S2-E1
Revealing mistake: Richard at home is reading a book on slavery. An English book, at least the cover and the big header of the first internal page are in English, and about slavery. But a quick peek before the cut easily reveals that the book is written in French and talks about cocktails. (00:28:10)
Continuity mistake: When Aunt Mary is writing on the whiteboard at the hospital, the word "killed" changes style between shots. (00:31:40)
DI Humphrey Goodman: If I am gonna woo the ladies with my culinary skills, I think I need to invest in a cookery book.
DS Florence Cassell: I don't know. Maybe turning on the oven would be a good start.
DI Humphrey Goodman: Yes. The devil is in the detail. (00:24:50)
Question: When Richard reminisces about England, he talks about going to the pub and having a pint. Yet the whole time he's in Saint Marie, he is never seen to drink alcohol with the rest of the team; only cups of tea. Why?
Answer: Most likely they had only tropical exotic drinks, he wanted an old fashioned English beer.
