Continuity mistake: DI Goodman holds the recently sharpened knife and goes through a few smug ways to tell Dwayne the chef was left-handed. The knife faces a different direction depending on the shot's angle - towards Dwayne in Danny John-Jules' close-up, upwards when he says 'left-handed'. (00:07:30)
Continuity mistake: Classic mistake of the series (happens at least in a couple episodes per seasons); the Detective Inspector writes down names on the whiteboard, but they are written in different penmanship in close-up compared to the wider angles. In this particular case, the detail that is most telling is how Humphrey puts a little underline on some of the names, which is at very obviously different distance for the victim and the pastry chef. (00:14:00)
Continuity mistake: When Florence calls Humphrey's attention announcing that the brother of the victim has a criminal record, she's holding the pen with the cap towards herself. Cut, and the pen is pointed in the opposite direction. (00:16:30)
Continuity mistake: Florence drives into the pothole by Goodman's instructions; when he goes "Whaa!" and throws the papers in the air, the actress' hands turn around on the wheel, with the right hand at 2 o' clock - but it's nowhere to be seen in the next shot, and the left is almost at the zenith, when the wheel was turning the opposite direction. (00:17:40)
Continuity mistake: Goodman and Cassell are interviewing the pasty white brother of the victim at his hut. During the scene, the folder Humphrey holds close to his body is positioned differently (horizontal/vertical) as the two main camera angles alternate in the dialogue. When Gary puts on a shirt, the folder even switches hands, blatantly. (00:18:10)
Continuity mistake: The victim's fiancée prepares a green smoothie and answers the questions of the police about the private investigator's findings. When she points the picture on the counter, notice how in close-up there are no photos directly by DS Florence Cassell's arm, and in the other shots there are. The whole position of the pictures seems to vary at each cut. (00:20:50)
Continuity mistake: During the conversation with Anouk Laban, Humphrey Goodman gets all defensive saying that "we're not all like that", placing his hand on his hip. Before and after this attempt at humour, Kris Marshall has his arm on the bar counter. (00:21:50)
Continuity mistake: It's time for a motive for Kim Sweeney, and the inspector and DS go to interview her. She is in her bed, surrounded by used paper tissues, which change position between shots. (00:33:45)
Continuity mistake: When Dwayne informs his bosses that they used to call him "The Shaquille O'Neal of Saint Marie", he is suddenly leaning again against the bar post, he was not before the cut. (00:50:05)
Continuity mistake: The DS, DI and Officer Myers are looking at JP when Dwayne says that there's "trouble in paradise." The bottles of beer turn in their hands in between shots. (00:50:20)
Answer: Most likely they had only tropical exotic drinks, he wanted an old fashioned English beer.
