Dishing Up Murder - S5-E6

Revealing mistake: Florence and Humphrey are reading the article about the young Dexter Allen from the Hackney Gazette. Behind the article, Florence has her mail open. Amazingly enough, the names of the people she received mail from (Joshua, David, Faye, a Customer service) are the same ones as the victims in She Was Murdered Twice, season 4 episode 7 when one of the suspects opened it from a public computer.

Dishing Up Murder - S5-E6

Revealing mistake: While they are checking out Matt Holt's discount Facebook page (Face-spaces dot com) on the computer, behind the browser window there's an open file with a fingerprint, and like in another episode of this series, it's a fingerprint not related at all to this case, but one from three years earlier, the episode of season 3 "Ye of Little Faith", this time from the victim of that case Natasha Thiebert.

Episode #1.5 - S1-E5

Plot hole: Leon Hamilton is the most hated man in Sainte Marie, with over 900 people on the island conned by him. Yet exactly one person in the whole island knows how he looks like, every newspaper and website never ever published a picture of him even during the very public trial when they were trying to get their thousands of dollars back nor publish an archive picture after his death.

Erupting in Murder - S6-E1

Trivia: A bit of the episode has been cut for the streaming releases; at the end of the scene with Humphrey taking Martha's luggage, he would make a date with her for the next day, to cook dinner for her at 8. This has been eliminated probably because it created timing issues with 8 PM being too well lit (in contrast with the supposed timing of the murder) and the ending takes place at Catherine's for a cute drinking scene anyway.

Show generally

Question: Why did the cord on the wall phone in the police station change from straight in the early episodes to coiled later?

Answer: There's probably no particular reason. Sets and props on long-running TV shows often change as needed and for various reasons throughout a series run.
