The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Tintin is locked in a room tied up to two pipes. There is rope around his torso and ankles which is connected to the pipes above and even his arms are tied up, connected to the pipes behind him. Allan then enters the room and the rope that was connecting his arms to the pipe is now nowhere in sight. It is partially visible for a few frames, but then vanishes for the rest of the shot. Then when the shot cuts to Tintin, there is suddenly rope wrapped all around the pipe behind him. (00:12:35)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When the three bad guys make for the car after taking Mr. Kuraki with them, two of them are headed for the right hand side and the bad guy with the purple jumper runs to the left side. In the next shot the bad guy with the purple jumper is now on the right hand side of the car, pulling the door shut. (00:06:45)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: After Snowy tackles the man, the man throws him onto the ground and then says "I'll tend to you later, mutt", then turns his head to Tintin and says "But first I'm gonna take care of you." Just as the shot ends, Tintin's mouth vanishes from shot for a brief frame. (00:06:15)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Other mistake: Whilst examining the wrapper with "Karaboudjan" written on it, the "K" is a centimeter away from the letter "A" and all the other letters are about a fifth of a centimeter away from the letters. Tintin then places a magnifying glass above the word "Karaboudjan." After doing this, the "K" that was a centimeter away from the "A" is now a fifth of a centimeter away from the "A", but none of the other letters seem to have changed distances. This all occurs within the same shot. (00:05:15)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: At the beginning when Daws is writing on the back of a wrapper, the back of the wrapper is white. However, when Tintin finds the wrapper later, the back of the wrapper is yellow. (00:01:55 - 00:03:40)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Other mistake: During the first shot of Captain Haddock, there is a shot of his table with cards. You can see there are three of the same card (a red ace) on the table. Even if it's one heart and one diamond there's still an extra. (00:15:25)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Tintin throws the planks of wood through Captain Haddock's porthole, they land on his head. Haddock turns his head and his glass of whiskey is almost full to the top. He then turns back to his table, saying "Back stabbing scallywags", and there is now less whiskey in his glass. (00:15:20)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Tintin and Snowy run into the storage room to hide from Allan and the other two bad guys, the door to the room is white. A couple of shots later, as Allan says "Give it up. He's barricaded", the door is now teal. (00:14:30)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: In the overhead shot of Tintin lying on the floor after he is knocked unconscious, he, the bad guy and the tin all have shadows, but Snowy doesn't. (00:10:50)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When the crew member goes to take out Tintin by dropping a crate of tins on him, he goes to press the red button in order for the crate to drop. The three levers he was using are in the middle of the device. After the crate drop fails to land on him and Allan yells at him, the three levers are at the top. (00:08:20)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1

The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Tintin explains to the Thompsons why he is rummaging through the bins, the Thompsons tell the garbage man to open the sack. Tintin then walks up to only a foot away from the man, but when Snowy is looking at the garbage sack there is no sign of Tintin. (00:04:35)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: As Tintin is rummaging through the bins, he says "It's got to be in here somewhere, Snowy." In this shot, the bin is bright blue. The shot cuts over to Snowy growling, but when the shot cuts the detectives entering the scene and one of them says "Tintin", in reaction to him rummaging the bins, the bin is now bright turquoise. (00:04:10)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Snowy runs back to Tintin after getting the Crabe Extra tin stuck in his nose, Tintin says "That's what you get for sticking your nose where it doesn't belong" and reaches to take the tin off his nose. As Tintin reaches for the tin, the wrapper of the tin itself is a very bright yellow and the words "Crabe Extra" are very large. In the next shot, as Tintin actually takes the tin off his nose, the wrapper of the tin is now a pale yellow and the words "Crabe Extra" are now a lot smaller. (00:03:00)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: Just after Tintin has beaten up the two bad guys, he gets hit on the head and lands on the ground on his stomach with Snowy wrapped around his arm. There is an error in the animation that occurs during the shot. Snowy is visible under Tintin, but then Snowy's head is shown going part way above Tintin's jumper. (00:06:35)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: The pilot of the seaplane has a mustache, and goes back to the site of the boat to see if Tintin and Haddock really are dead. When Snowy appears behind him and the pilot says "Where did you come from?", the mustache has vanished completely. Then as Tintin pulls on the pilot's leg, the mustache reappears again. (00:20:35)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: After Tintin runs into the storage room, he barricades the door with several crates and Allan and the three bad guys are shown trying to get in by pulling on the door handle. At the end of the shot, the door handle is pointing upwards, but in the shot of Allan and three bad guys, the other end of the door handle is completely straight. (00:14:30)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Allan and his two crew mates go to question Tintin, they enter a room with a teal door with a handle. When they are inside the room a few inches of hull are shown under the door. As the three go to leave the room after the questioning, the teal door is now grey with a knob, and almost a foot of extra hull is now shown beneath the door. (00:12:25 - 00:13:00)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Tintin discovers the Crabe Extra tins in the ship's decks, he is knocked out and drops his torch that is left turned on. As the shot begins to pan out, the torch is suddenly switched off. Also, his torch is pointed to the left as he is knocked out, but shifted slightly to the right when the shot begins panning out. (00:10:30)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Tintin is searching the decks, Snowy starts scratching his paws on a red door so Tintin would come over to it. As Tintin walks over to it, we see it has a door knob. In the next shot, it just has a regular handle. (00:10:00)
Chosen answer: It is a pill that makes alcohol taste disgusting.
