The Invisible Man

Beholder - S1-E15

Continuity mistake: The assassin rips out a magazine page with Leila's photo on it and sets it ablaze with a cigarette lighter. The face in the picture burns while he's still holding the page. But in the next shot, after he drops it, the face is still intact and starts to burn all over again. (00:22:30)

Pilot (1) - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Darien reaches into the glass spider enclosure to retrieve the note, the number of spiders sitting on the paper changes (too quickly for them to have crawled away and back naturally). First there are two on top of the paper, then only one, then instantly two again. (01:11:30)

Season 1 generally

Plot hole: In the pilot, it is established that the surface of anything/anyone made invisible by "quicksilver" is freezing. (Darien gets caught in the women's shower because the mist freezes on him. He freezes the beer mugs for the doctors.) But in later episodes, nobody notices him standing invisible - and freezing!? - next to them.

Darien Fawkes: The Scottish philosopher Balfour said that destiny is the scapegoat we make responsible for our crimes. He was probably right, too, but I bet he was real dull at parties.

Trivia: A number of in-joke Dr. Who references crop up throughout the series pilot. A group of doctors and scientists are introduced as Hartnell, Troughton, and Baker; there's a business card for I. M. Foreman in Totters Lane; and the cover of a science magazine sports headlines such as "Time and Relative Dimension in Space" and "Playing the Game of Rassilon."
