Land of Black Gold: Part 1 - S2-E10
Plot hole: Thomson and Thompson fall asleep whilst driving their jeep and are arrested because whilst they were asleep, they drove into and damaged several people's markets and as well as driving into the wall of a building. Although the decision to arrest them would seem normal due to the vandalism, it does not make sense why both of the detectives would have gotten arrested. Even if they both fell asleep at the wheel, only one of the detectives was actually responsible for the vandalism caused by this. (00:19:00)

Revealing mistake: When the military police are searching the Speedol Star, two of them barge into Thomson and Thompson's room whilst they are playing cards. After they barge into the room, the two let go of their cards in surprise. Once this happens, there is a card shown near the right hand side of the table that is floating above the table. (00:08:00)

Continuity mistake: When the military police are looking through the detectives' bags, one of them finds a bag that Thomson and Thompson assume to be the secret documents. The man begins to shake it and diamonds fall out. In the first shot of the diamonds falling out, as the shot ends, two diamonds are in the man's hand, followed by a third diamond falling out. The shot cuts and there are suddenly five diamonds in the man's hand, followed by a sixth diamond that falls out. (00:08:15)

Revealing mistake: Tintin sees the four men planting the explosive in the pipe line. Two of the four men are kneeling beside the pipe, one on the front side wearing a brown cloak and green clothing and one on the opposite side wearing grey clothing planting the explosive in the pipe. The man on the opposite side in grey clothing is passing through the pipe when the two are first kneeling. (00:12:20)

Revealing mistake: Mueller hops off his horse and tells Tintin (as Amed) to hold the horse and tells him he will be back in a moment. Throughout the entirety of this shot, the colour of the blanket on Mueller's horse constantly flickers between several frames. As Mueller gets off the horse, the blanket is dark teal, then Mueller hands the rein to his horse to Tintin and the blanket suddenly flickers to dark orange and also dark teal near the bottom. Tintin jumps off the horse and the blanket suddenly flickers back to dark teal again. (00:13:25)

Continuity mistake: After Tintin realises he was right that the man was Mueller, the shot then pans back to Mueller looking at his face in a small mirror. When the shot stops panning, there is nothing reflected in Mueller's mirror. The shot changes to a close-up of the mirror and Mueller's reflection suddenly appears in the mirror. (00:13:55)

Continuity mistake: Tintin is waiting for his meeting with the Emir in the castle. In the first interior shot of the castle whilst Tintin is waiting, the handle on the left side of the door is slightly lower than the handle on the right of the door. A few moments after Tintin walks into the room, the door closes behind him and the two door handles are suddenly level with each other. (00:19:05)

Character mistake: The man who escorts Tintin into the Emir's office asks Tintin if he is here about "today's events in the market" (referring to Thomson and Thompson crashing their jeep), to which Tintin replies "Yes", but seconds later, when Tintin is explaining his reasons to the Emir for visiting him, he states the events with the jeep occurred yesterday. (00:19:20)

Continuity mistake: When Tintin is speaking with the Speedol exec, there is a chart on the wall behind the exec.

A further two shots after, the last marked point is suddenly back to where it was. (00:02:05)
