Revealing mistake: Tintin, Haddock and Professor Calculus are driving to the last professor's house and Haddock is the one driving. All three of them get out and walk to the gate, but even though no-one else is inside the car, a pair of hands can still be seen holding the steering wheel. (00:15:50)
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 1 - S3-E3

The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 1 - S3-E3
Audio problem: When Tintin goes into Tarragon's bedroom, he opens the door and a click sound can be heard, indicating he turned the door handle, but when the door opens, he is shown pushing the door open with his hand and not turning the handle. (00:20:50)
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 1 - S3-E3
Audio problem: When Tintin, Haddock and the detective go into Tarragon's bedroom to discover him just sleeping, Tintin steps on a few broken shards of crystal. The sound effect used of the crystal shards breaking is too loud considering the shards of crystal shown were far too small to make such an audible crunching sound. (00:21:00)
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4
Continuity mistake: When Tintin says "The curse of Rascar Capac has come true", the detective has black hair and a black moustache, but in the next shot, his hair and moustache are now a much more reddish-brown colour. (00:25:10)
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4

The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4
Factual error: When Tintin begins climbing the tree to see if the intruder is hiding, he jumps up and grabs one of the tree branches. The branch is practically unaffected by the Tintin's added weight. There is no sound heard when the branch is grabbed hold of, nor are there any vibrations made to the branch when Tintin grabs it. (00:28:55)
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4
Continuity mistake: Tintin, Haddock and Snowy are searching for the intruder and the intruder is pointing a gun at them from inside a shed. From the inside shot, Tintin is walking past a tree with a small branch hanging from the side of it. When Tintin is shot at, he is suddenly standing right beside the tree. (00:30:00)
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4
Factual error: When the intruder fires at Tintin, the shot misses him, but instead hits a tree branch. The tree branch is blown off, but the tree that the branch was hanging from has no visible damage. If the bullet had hit the branch and it flew off, there would still be a stump visible from where the branch had snapped off. If the bullet hit the tree and this caused the branch to fly away, there would be a visible bullet mark on the tree. Regardless, there is no way the tree would not have any visible damage done towards it. (00:30:00)
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4
Factual error: The shed that the intruder fires at Tintin and Haddock from has a lock shown on the interior side of the door, but no lock shown from the exterior side of the door. (00:30:15)
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4
Revealing mistake: When Tintin and Haddock break into the shed, they look out of a window to find the intruders getting away. When they look out of the window, Tintin's arm passes through a wooden bar shown near the bottom section of the window. (00:30:20)
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4
Revealing mistake: When the detective is phoning the police about the black sedan, a man sitting at a desk is writing the details. He is writing on four lines of paper, but after writing the first three lines, he is just writing over the third line for a second time and the fourth line of writing suddenly appears on the paper. (00:30:35)
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4
Continuity mistake: When the police officer is asking one of the cars if they saw a black Sedan on the road, the driver has a cigarette in his mouth. As the car drives away, the cigarette has vanished. (00:31:10)
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4
Continuity mistake: When the police officers are telling Haddock that they have lost track of the intruders, Tintin inspects a tree with a scratch mark. In the first shot, he is inspecting the scratch mark with one finger, but in the next shot, he is suddenly using his entire hand. (00:31:55)
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4
Continuity mistake: When Haddock kicks the hat laid on top of a brick, the brick is right next to a railway track, but when Haddock yells out "Hooligans" to the kids and picks up the brick, the brick is much further away. (00:39:50)
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4
Character mistake: Tintin mentions that they passed a beige car on their way to the road block with four people inside. First, they did not pass this car. The car stopped at the road block, and after they were asked about the black sedan, they drove away. Tintin, Haddock and the detective then arrived at the road block in their car, coming in from a different lane. Second, the car that was stopped at the road block only had three people inside, not four. (00:32:20)
The Red Sea Sharks: Part 1 - S3-E1

The Red Sea Sharks: Part 1 - S3-E1
Revealing mistake: When Tintin and Haddock bump into General Alcazar, after Tintin says "General Alcazar", the shot cuts to Alcazar saying "Ah, yes" in a confused manner. When he is saying this, there is a man walking in the background, about to walk out of frame. Just as the man is about to exit the frame, he vanishes. (00:01:45)
Chosen answer: It is a pill that makes alcohol taste disgusting.
