Death in Paradise

Episode #2.7 - S2-E7

Stupidity: For his experiment, Richard times Dwayne's departure with exact precision including a 3 count, getting angry because he 'cheats' taking off before it's over...but does that while the others, and himself, have yet to even get to their parallel parked cars. That makes no sense at all. (00:13:55)

Episode #2.5 - S2-E5

Stupidity: For the plot to go the way it is shown, the police, that were specifically looking for poison from an unknown source, had to completely neglectful checking the trash bin (or they'd find a bottle with - literally - the name of the victim in big glitter letters, which is sure to draw attention!) and somehow miss the fact that the victim's food and drink were into a mess of shattered glass that made at best dubious which one her real glass was. Both are pretty huge oversights nobody seems to care about and that would have raised at least some suspicion from even the most casual investigator, especially when no poison was found in the glass.

Episode #2.4 - S2-E4

Stupidity: It's pure film logic, that a geologist would make a note (to himself, even) and write down together with the element, also its atomic number (not the mass number identifying the isotope, but just the common atomic number, who is always the same regardless).

Episode #2.7 - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: When Fidel and Dwayne arrive at the place where Camille and Richard are hiding for the hurricane, they can open the doors without a problem, whereas Camille and Richard had taken great care of locking the doors from the inside.

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.
