Continuity mistake: The piece of wood the detectives throw at the window has a straight Y shape. In shots of the wood on the ground, the Y is much more outstretched compared to other shots. (00:34:50)
King Ottokar's Sceptre: Part 2 - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: When Tintin is in the car with the singer, there is a man next to her. He's wearing a red jumper, but it disappears about 30 seconds later. (00:25:30 - 00:26:05)
Other mistake: In order for Rastapopoulos to break into the secret passageway, he places chunks of dynamite around the idol, then lights a fuse for each individual chunk of dynamite, all burning at the same time. The fuse for the dynamite near the middle of the idol is significantly shorter than the fuses for the others. Despite this, it still takes the exact same amount of time for all three to burn down. (00:34:00)
Continuity mistake: When Allan realises that Rastapopoulos wants Carreidas alive, there is a grenade pin in one of his fingers from the grenade that he just took out. Allan then throws the grenade away, and the pin for the grenade has suddenly vanished. (00:28:55)
Continuity mistake: At the start, keep an eye on the tape strips over Carreidas' mouth. There is a vertical piece of tape directly over Carreidas' mouth, followed by another piece of tape from the top of his right cheek down to the bottom of his left cheek positioned at a sideways angle, followed by another piece of tape from the top of his left cheek down to the bottom of his right cheek also at a sideways angle. All three strips of tape are meeting with each other at a midway point by his mouth. However, when Haddock says "Come on" to Carreidas and Krollspell when they are under fire later on, the tape strips positioned sideways now meet each other at around Carreidas' left cheek area, further away from his mouth. (00:25:45 - 00:26:40)
Character mistake: When Rastapopoulos and Carreidas are arguing, Haddock intervenes telling them to cut it out. Rastapopoulos and Carreidas attempt to kick each other but end up kicking Haddock's leg. The kick is shown to have hit Haddock around the back of his leg, but Haddock then grabs his knee in pain. (00:21:00)
Continuity mistake: Captain Haddock places three strips of tape over Rastapopoulos', Carreidas' and Krollspell's mouths. The last piece of tape over Rastapopoulos' mouth is a strip that goes from the top of his left cheek down to the bottom of his right cheek. A few seconds later, as they leave the room and go outside, it goes from the top of his right cheek down to the bottom of his left cheek. (00:20:35)
Continuity mistake: When Tintin and the others are locked in the room, Tintin looks out the window, assuming he thought he heard Snowy. On the left hand side of the window is a plant. A few minutes later, Snowy arrives and the plant is still there, but when Tintin throws Snowy out the window telling him to wait, the plant has vanished. (00:13:55 - 00:16:20)
Continuity mistake: After Snowy runs away, two gunmen grab ahold of Tintin, restraining him. As Tintin is yelling "Cowards! Murderers!", the gunman on the left is holding Tintin's upper arm with his right hand. The shot cuts to a closer angle of Tintin and there is no sign of the gunman's right hand. (00:11:00)
Continuity mistake: When Carreidas receives a call from New York, he takes the phone from the flight attendant. The cord on the phone is black when the flight attendant is holding it on the dish, but red when Carreidas answers the call. (00:06:10)
Continuity mistake: When Mr. Carreidas and Mr. Spaulding walk over to Tintin, Haddock and Skut, in the shot where Skut says "Mr. Carreidas, these are my friends", the money that Haddock previously placed into Carreidas' hat is sticking out of it and a portion of the note is tucked into Carreidas' hat. In the next shot, only the top right corner is tucked into into Carreidas' hat. (00:03:15)
Land of Black Gold: Part 2 - S2-E11
Continuity mistake: When Tintin is handed the letter that says the Emir's son has been kidnapped, there is a close-up shot of him holding it. When the shot cuts to Tintin handing the letter back to the Emir, for a split second his hands have changed position. More writing also appears on the letter. (00:27:10)
Land of Black Gold: Part 2 - S2-E11
Revealing mistake: When Tintin and Oliviera da Figueria are talking with the guard at the castle door, the guard sneezes and Oliviera takes out a handkerchief saying "Some beautiful handkerchiefs." When Oliviera finishes taking out the handkerchief, as he says "Some", a weird mark appears on the screen, right where the handkerchief is located. This is visible for only one frame but it can still be noticed. (00:32:00)
Land of Black Gold: Part 2 - S2-E11
Continuity mistake: On the drive back, Tintin looks at the bottle of Formula 14 pills. In a close-up of Tintin looking at the bottle, the bottle is blue, but after Mueller tells Tintin if he destroys the pills he can make him rich, the bottle is suddenly green. (00:42:15)
Land of Black Gold: Part 2 - S2-E11
Continuity mistake: After Mueller's car has crashed and Abdullah asks for ice-cream, Mueller replies "Ice-cream?" and we can see his tie is unfastened. In the next shot, Mueller doesn't move, but when the shot cuts back, Mueller's tie is suddenly fastened completely. (00:39:50)
Land of Black Gold: Part 2 - S2-E11
Continuity mistake: After Mueller has caught Abdullah, Tintin shoots the lock off one of the cells and hides in it. When he is inside, the bullet damage from when he shot the lock is visible and is coloured green. A few shots later, the damage is suddenly beige and the same colour as the door. Then a few shots after that, the damage is suddenly green again. (00:37:25)
Land of Black Gold: Part 2 - S2-E11
Continuity mistake: After Tintin has found Abdullah, he fights with one of the guards and knocks the guard out. When Tintin knocks out the guard, he has a gun in his right hand. Two shots after this, the gun has vanished. (00:35:50)
Land of Black Gold: Part 2 - S2-E11
Continuity mistake: When Tintin is investigating Mueller's room, he comes across a file with various articles in it. Before Tintin goes to pick up the file, the articles are on the right hand side of the file, but when he has the file in his hand, in the exact same shot, several articles have immediately appeared on the left hand side of it. (00:33:25)
Land of Black Gold: Part 2 - S2-E11
Continuity mistake: After Thomson and Thompson have inadvertently taken the Formula 14, Tintin, Haddock and Abdullah approach them with Mueller. There are oil stains all over one of side of Mueller's jacket and no oil stains on the other side, but after Thompson tells Mueller to get in the car, there are oil stains all over the jacket. (00:41:45)
Land of Black Gold: Part 2 - S2-E11
Continuity mistake: When Abdullah opens the cell door, Tintin runs in and grabs Abdullah leaving the door open by a few inches. The shot cuts to the guard that Tintin had knocked out, and the door, visible in the background, is suddenly open entirely. The door has also changed from being grey to beige. (00:36:05)
