(11 votes)

Episode #1.1 - S1-E1

Corrected entry: During a conversation with Carson in the library, Lord Grantham bends down to pet the dog and addresses her as "boy" but throughout the rest of the series, Isis is a female dog.

Correction: In season 1 the dog is Pharaoh, a boy. Between season 1 and 2, Pharaoh dies and lord Grantham gets Isis.

Episode #1.5 - S1-E5

Corrected entry: While setting up a fire in lady Mary's bedroom, Daisy mentions that she "hates this room", and they show a clip of Mary carrying the dead body of Mr. Pamouk. Why would that have anything to do with Mary's room? There is no reason that Daisy would think he had been in Mary's room at all.

Correction: When Daisy was coming up the servant stairs in the hallway she sneakily saw the women carrying his body out of her room to his.

Christmas Special 2012 - S3-E9

Continuity mistake: In this episode, Cora tells Mr. Gregson that she started reading "The Sketch" when Edith began to write for him. In Season one, episode one, Carson tells William to iron "The Sketch", because "her ladyship only ever reads the Sketch."

Episode #1.4 - S1-E4

Question: Why does Daisy "take a turn" in Lady Mary's room? She never saw them take Pamook's body from Mary's room. She only saw them putting him back in his room, which is said to be "miles" away.

Answer: Word gets around. The staff are gossips amongst themselves, but those loyal to the family know who to keep secrets from and who they can trust to share in the knowledge.

Answer: Lady Mary was one of the three women Daisy saw carrying Pamuk's body. Daisy realised he could not have died in Cora's (Lady Grantham) room, as she sleeps with husband Robert, nor would Cora and Mary ever help carry Pamuk from Anna's bedroom in the upstairs servants' quarters. Lady Sylvia and Lady Edith were completely unaware of what happened and Edith later quizzed Daisy for information. That left Mary, who everyone noticed was particularly distraught. Daisy could have overheard Thomas later telling O'Brien that he had shown Pamuk where Mary's bedroom was located (though he never saw Pamuk go inside).
