Ghost Light:

10ep 1-3 – Archaeological evidence shows that Neanderthal Man possessed a throat structure which would only allow coarse, simple speech sounds to be made, so Nimrod could not possibly speak as articulately as he does in this story.

20ep 1 – When the candle carried by Mrs. Pritchard suddenly flares up in front of Josiah, the actress's thumb can be clearly seen in the close-up operating the mechanism in the candlestick controlling the flame.

30ep 1 – As Nimrod and the Doctor enter the room where Redvers faces the blinding light, the key (which Nimrod supposedly just used to unlock the door) can be seen dangling limply from the lock, rather than being fully pushed into the lock as it should be.

40ep 2 – While the sight of Inspector Mackenzie asleep in the bottom drawer certainly makes for an arresting visual (no pun intended), one has to ask the question: how could he actually fit into that drawer? The chest of drawers is never actually shown in full, probably for just this reason, but it's quite clear (see, for example, the shot of the Doctor watching Gwendoline open it at the start of the episode) that it's not much deeper than the width of the room's door. That makes it far too small to cram the inspector into, even if he wasn't (as he seems to be) laid out straight in his drawer.

50ep 2 – When Josiah and co. come to life in the upper observatory as the clock chimes six, Gwendoline takes a couple of attempts to successfully get up from her seat.

60ep 3 – Why on Earth does Josiah think that assassinating Queen Victoria will result in him gaining control of the British Empire?
