The Calculus Affair: Part 1 - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: After the window shatters, we can see some of the glass still remains. A few minutes later, a man arrives at the house. When he goes to get his coat from Nestor, the glass that remained in the window has vanished. We know it's the same window because the glass is still on the floor. (00:03:50 - 00:06:00)

Continuity mistake: Just after Frank knocks out Alexander Dunning, the scene cuts to Sarah and Victoria having a conversation about how she met Frank. At one point during this conversation, Sarah says "Of course now I'm a fugitive and the CIA wants to kill me and I'm hiding in a hole". Right at the end of the shot where Sarah says this line, it can be noticed that her lips are apart. In the immediate following shot her lips are fully closed. (01:03:45)

Red (2010)

Continuity mistake: During the airport shootout, Frank tells Marvin to unzip his pig teddy that is revealed to contain a grenade launcher, and he shoots at a gunner on top of a container. Marvin then drops the pig teddy, which is visible in front of the containers as they take off running in the next shot to the next container. However, when the shot zooms out as Marvin points his middle finger at the satellite, the pig teddy is no longer there. It couldn't have been out of frame because the pig teddy was only two containers away from them. (00:40:00)

Red (2010)

Continuity mistake: Frank and Sarah arrive at a motel and Frank removes the duct tape from Sarah's mouth. Sarah then says "If you let me go now, I won't press charges". Note the two necklaces around her neck when she says this. There is a butterfly attached to one, lying above the other necklace. The shot then cuts over to Frank. When the shot returns to Sarah, the butterfly is now several inches below the other necklace. Once again, the shot cuts to Frank where he then says "I was in the CIA". In the shot after that shows Sarah again, the butterfly has gone back to lying on top of the other necklace. She could not have moved the necklace around during the shots of Frank since she was tied up. (00:15:35)

Continuity mistake: Episode 3, Citizen Brown: When Marty and George are checking over the surveillance tapes to see who attacked George, George says to Marty "I remember cleaning the playback heads at 5:30. The attack couldn't have been very long after", but in the next scene, on the same day, the clock on the courthouse tower reads 5:03, even though prior to this, George stated he was cleaning the surveillance tapes at 5:30 that same day.

The Boys in the Bar - S1-E16

Continuity mistake: When Sam tells everyone it's closing time, he asks Harry how he got into the bar whilst he is playing snooker. He replies and then places a white snooker ball two inches behind a blue ball. There is also a yellow ball about three inches to the right of the blue ball. In the next shot, the yellow ball has suddenly moved a foot away from the blue ball. The yellow ball returns to its original position three inches away from the blue ball in the next shot.

The Black Island: Part 2 - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: On the tower roof, the gorilla makes a roar that causes Tintin's hat to fall off the tower and into the sea (or rocks around the island). Tintin and Snowy run down a flight of stairs and the gorilla follows them. When the gorilla reaches the bottom of the stairs, he is wearing Tintin's hat. There wouldn't have been anywhere for him to get the hat since it would be in the sea or rocks by that time. (00:37:15 - 00:38:10)
