Episode #3.2 - S3-E2
Continuity mistake: Humphrey arrives on the crime scene, by the body. Camille is putting gloves on; she has the right one and is in the midst of putting the left on, cut and she is gloveless putting the right on, cut again and she is putting the left on using her gloved right. (00:04:05)
Episode #3.2 - S3-E2

Episode #3.2 - S3-E2
Continuity mistake: In the catering shack, Humphrey does his thing when he start scribbling on random pieces of paper. When he steps behind Camille to go fetch the paper towel, depending on the camera angle Camille is holding her own notepad in separate ways on a different tilt that matches the separate matching camera angles. Walking extras carry over from matching camera angles as well, disappearing when it cuts to a different one. (00:04:55)
Episode #3.2 - S3-E2
Continuity mistake: There's a close-up of the empty box of chocolates as DI Humphrey Goodman reviews the content of the catering table. The close-up is not from the same arrangement seen in the rest of the scene; the angle is slightly off and it is missing a used towel next to one of the two paper cups. The fork is also pointed in the opposite direction. (00:05:05)
Episode #3.2 - S3-E2
Continuity mistake: Right after the brief flashback with Thea Holmes bringing pizza to Lexi Cunningham, watch out for an extra with a red band holding her hair in a bun; she walks behind Camille. One more cut and she's notably passing by again, on the opposite side. The same person is suddenly in frame again, again passing by DS Bordey, several seconds later into the conversation. (00:05:45)

Continuity mistake: Humphrey has spoken with Lexi and the director, with awareness for the first time that the chocolate box may have been for her. He then talks with Camille. Look behind him when she says "No box of chocolate was delivered to Lexi"; a man in jean cut-offs is carrying some equipment. Camille and Humphrey then talk and a mini-flashback pops up, with about 10 seconds on effective dialogue, and when it cuts back to them, that same crewmember is carrying the same piece of equipment walking the same way from the same spot as before. (00:12:20)

Episode #3.2 - S3-E2
Continuity mistake: Humphrey starts picking up his things from the desk to join Camille when the first day is over. She tells him "I thought you'd be rushing home..." He is in the foreground during the line, and we see a glimpse of the documents getting under his arm, but he was already clutching them close in the shot before. (00:16:15)
Episode #3.2 - S3-E2
Continuity mistake: When Dwayne and Lexi begin rehearsing her lines, the pen changes position between shots after he gives his Angel Gabriel performance, and when he is standing and expresses appreciation for her delivery there's an obvious incoherence in the movement of his arm, with the hand hovering on the script in one shot and off the way entirely in the next. Besides, he was starting his reading "from the top" but the finger supposedly following the conversation was almost at the end of the page. (00:21:05)
Episode #3.2 - S3-E2
Continuity mistake: Dwayne offers to help the 'Chief' to meet new women. There's some banter with the other colleagues, and then Fidel says that "In a weird way that actually makes sense."

Episode #3.2 - S3-E2
Factual error: When Camille shows the emails to Humphrey, the last one in the list is dated Tue 15/01/2014, which was a Wednesday. It should also be noted that the list does not appear to be sorted by any criteria that would work on Outlook Express. (00:22:00)
Episode #3.2 - S3-E2
Character mistake: When Camille and Humphrey browse the writers' message board, the post done by Arnold Finch under the pen name of "Grumpywriter" contains a variety of spelling mistakes unbecoming of a writer (but that often happen in this show's prop department) such as "unnecasary" "tallentless imbecel." Earlier (hard to catch it without slo-mo in this case) in his mail we see him ask about puffer fish poison and "it's toxicity" and sign the mail with "Sincerly." The subject of another mail in the inbox is "Updated Shedule." (00:22:30)
Episode #3.2 - S3-E2
Continuity mistake: After they spoke with the grumpy writer, Humphrey tells Camille about the domestic dispute in Lexi's hotel room and they both hop in the car. During this part of the scene, there are several extra leaving the screen either left or right and some are shooting hoops in the background. When we see the two cops drive away, they drive by a few people on the road who are the same extras from before and that were going in separate directions. (00:25:00)
Episode #3.2 - S3-E2
Continuity mistake: When Fidel is talking with Formerly Big Dave, his hat jumps in different positions (in his right hand, under his left arm, in both hands) between cuts. (00:26:30)
