6 mistakes in season 1

(0 votes)

The Red Serpent - S1-E1

Factual error: One of the naked female dancers at the party has breast implants. Although some forms of plastic surgery were known to the Romans, breast augmentation was not one of them. If you want to check for yourself she appears just after the masked dwarf moves through the shot.

Delicate Things - S1-E6

Other mistake: In the scene where Barca is bleeding at the pool, Batiatus comes and grabs his hair. Barca abruptly moves before Batiatus starts to actually pull his hair.

Legends - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: At the gladiatorial school, Gnaeus throws his net over the stake. While he's trying to take it back Spartacus talks to him, and then in the next shot the net suddenly appears around his arm. (00:25:25)

benbudds

Mark of the Brotherhood - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: Near the start, right after Spartacus slices a man, you see him holding only the hilt of a sword - when shots of cutting are seen, the blades are normally added digitally, but it wasn't in this case. A couple of seconds later it is back to a full sword. (00:01:40)

Seujiro

Party Favors - S1-E10

Factual error: When Numerius wants Spartacus to kill Varro, he gives a thumbs-down. People who wanted to see a defeated gladiator slain would express their desire with a thumbs-up gesture instead.

Spartacus: Sura and I often spoke of children. A family we were going to have now forever denied me. As I now deny Glaber of his.
Ilithyia: The child is yours.
Spartacus: You lie.
Ilithyia: Would then my tongue make false noise? It yet speaks bitter truth. Monthly blood ceased after you came to me in Batiatus' villa. Lucretia had promised Crixus - a cruel jest. Tis a memory that lingers, is it not? Of that night. Of you inside me.
Spartacus: Yes. As does memory of my hands around your throat.
