Death in Paradise

Flames of Love - S5-E8

Factual error: The stratagem used to conceal the murder and disguise it as suicide is absurd from the start; it relies on the old trope of a gun "silenced" shooting through a pillow. It simply does not work, a gunshot in the early morning in the empty camp would have not been dulled down significantly by a pillow, and still be heard.

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.
