Death in Paradise

The Blood Red Sea - S5-E7

Continuity mistake: Goodman calls it a day and mentions the stag party. Dwayne lays out on the desk three pair of handcuffs; the leftmost (the first he put down) is apart from the others, but when the lube comes into play, all three are clustered together. (00:22:35)

The Blood Red Sea - S5-E7

Continuity mistake: Florence puts on the table the knife sheath; it is laid out with the ends of the belt apart, but when Newton Farrell answers, they are joined together without anyone having touched it further. (00:20:30)

The Blood Red Sea - S5-E7

Continuity mistake: Humphrey found the cigar butt inside Newton's ship. He goes with his ever-smiling sidekick to interrogate him, finding him in asleep with a flask of booze between his hands. Cut, and Roger Griffiths' hands are on top of the flask instead than the bottom. (00:20:10)

The Blood Red Sea - S5-E7

Continuity mistake: Florence finds the divorce papers and calls Humphrey's attentions on them saying "Sir..." There is a paper sheet leaning by a corner on the laptop's right side. When the tabletop is again in frame (when Humphrey puts the coin back in the safe) the papers are arranged differently. (00:18:30)

The Blood Red Sea - S5-E7

Continuity mistake: The police are inside Tosh's boat, and Naomi Walker pokes downstairs to tell them that all his stuff is there and to help themselves. She has both hands on the manhole, which becomes just the right hand at the first cut. (00:17:25)

The Blood Red Sea - S5-E7

Continuity mistake: Sam Walker is holding back his dad Tosh, pulling him apart from the rival Newton Farrell. When Tosh snarls "Get away from my boat", his son has his left hand on his shoulder, but it's behind his back in the intermediate reverse shot. (00:01:25)

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. (00:22:50)

Show generally

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.
