Trapped in the Sky - S1-E1

Audio problem: When Scott and Lady Penelope are communicating with each other via mobile control, the timing on the lip sync between the two characters during the split screen effect is completely out of place.

Sun Probe - S1-E11

Audio problem: When Jeff says "Scott, Alan, Tin-Tin" after hearing from the TV Reporter that all hope is fading for Thunderbird 3, the words don't match his lips.

Vault of Death - S1-E13

Audio problem: When Lovegrove realises that Lambert is still in the vault, he is talking with Carter, whose voice is initially that of Shane Rimmer but then changes to a completely different voice provided by David Graham.

The Mighty Atom - S1-E14

Audio problem: When the Reactor Station Guard catches The Hood taking pictures, he can already be heard blowing his whistle before he finishes saying "Hey, what are you doing?"

The Duchess Assignment - S1-E21

Audio problem: In the opening scene at the casino, the rogue croupier at the Duchess' table is voiced by Matt Zimmerman, but when the same croupier calls out "18 red", he has a completely different voice provided by Peter Dyneley.

Attack of the Alligators - S1-E23

Audio problem: When Culp is walking from his boat to the window outside the laboratory, some dialogue from Dr Orchard describing the theramine process can be heard in the background. When we are in the laboratory, Dr Orchard describes the process with the same dialogue soundtrack.

Revealing mistake: When the dummy plane is shot out of the sky by the fighter pilot, a piece of the plane shoots off into the top left of the screen and bounces off the sky background. (00:23:05)
