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.

Mistakes

Episode #2.7 - S2-E7

Other mistake: When the dowager visits Matthew in his bedroom to tell him Mary is still in love with him before he goes through with marrying Lavinia, the curtains hanging behind Matthew are so wrinkled and creased just as curtains are when they come out of a package from the store. The crease lines are terrible! One would think set design would have steamed them as in real life, they would have been custom-made and certainly not folded up like that for shipping, thus never having creases like that.

Questions

A Moorland Holiday - S5-E9

Question: Lord Sinderby has a painting of Jesus in his library. Would a Jewish leader decorate his rooms with a crucified Jesus? I really don't know, so thanks for an answer from wiser ones.

Answer: Lord Sinderby purchased the house, furnished and appointed, from someone else, complete with staff that come with the home (some of whom aren't happy to be working for a Jewish family). He bought the title, as well. If the artwork featuring Jesus is valuable, he might keep it. Also interesting, his ancestors Anglicized their name, though he is proudly Jewish.
