Suggested correction: A light is reflected in the window. The scene is illuminated, so there are obviously lights at the location. What about the reflection indicates that they are stage lights?

Suggested correction: A light is reflected in the window. What indication is there that it is a stage light and not just a lamp that would be at the setting?

How To Make a Killing Without Really Trying - S6-E14

Revealing mistake: When Jessica enters Gordon Tully's office and looks around, there's a photo of him with Buddy Black. The picture is an awful, poorly done composite: the lighting on their heads doesn't match the rest of the image, the head sizes are out of proportion with the bodies, and the overall light direction is inconsistent.

If the Shoe Fits - S6-E13

Revealing mistake: When Danny recounts crashing the pickup and breaking the tail light, you can hear the light shatter when he hits the tree - but it doesn't actually break. In the next shot, however, the tail light is suddenly smashed.

Sing a Song of Murder - S2-E5

Revealing mistake: When the first scene at Emma's hideaway was shown, obviously the two characters Emma and Jessica were filmed seperately on the couch and then the film was put together (as both are played by Angela Lansbury). However Jessica did a lot of moving while she was talking, so Emma was looking straight across at where she had been, despite her bending down while she talked.

Sing a Song of Murder - S2-E5

Audio problem: When singing "Goodbye little yellow bird" Emma blows a kiss to Oliver offstage, but she is still singing the song when she is blowing the kiss. Although it's possible she was pretending as it was part of the act, her voice wasn't even muffled by her hand.

Sing a Song of Murder - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: When Emma was almost hit by a car she jumped up onto the edge of the wall and then back down onto the floor. When she landed she was facing the theatre door, but when Oliver came of the door and the shot changed, she was facing away from the wall. This happened in the transition from stunt person to Angela.

Tinker, Tailor, Liar, Thief - S8-E15

Revealing mistake: In the second close up shot of Nigel Atkins lying dead, after Jessica drops her Harrod's bag in the chair, it is obvious he is still alive as you can see his pulse on the side of his neck.

Thicker Than Water - S8-E4

Factual error: At the end of the episode after Wayne is shot, there is a brief shot of the outside of the hospital where he has been taken. The sign outside the hospital says Dalesboro, Ohio. Why would someone shot in coastal Maine end up in a hospital in Ohio?

Answer: At the start, Edward told Jessica that he loved the changes she'd made to her new book. Later, as his mental condition declined, he said the book was terrible and he wouldn't publish it until she made improvements. Edward's later note to Jessica was to apologise for saying her novel was bad and that he had been right about it the first time.
