Continuity mistake: Humphrey is doing his Humphrey thing coming up with the solution. He screams "That's it!" In a close-up of the mug on the desk, with a coaster in front of it. But he just pushed the mug aside in the previous shot, close to the chocolate card. (00:42:30)

Episode #3.2 - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: Humph brags about how he discovered about the affair from a cup of tea; in a wide shot of the whole room he then says "Which is also how I figured out..."; in the background, walking left to right is the same man in cream tank and black bandanna that was already doing the same as an extra earlier in the reveal scene ("It was all a deception, of course") and vanishes in the next shot. (00:43:25 - 00:44:25)

Episode #3.2 - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: When Humph says."was the intended victim all along", a walking extra in a grey hat quickly pops in view, and disappears in the next shot. He appears again walking in the same direction a couple cuts later, when Dwayne hunches over the trunk (which would be far behind the first point we saw him at). (00:45:00)

Man Overboard: Part 2 - S6-E6

DI Jack Mooney: My grandfather told me a story once, about these two wolves fighting inside all of us. And one of them is anger, envy, self-pity, regret. The other one is love, truth, faith, hope, that sort of thing.
And I asked him "which one of the wolves would win?" And do you know what he said?
"The one you feed."
