Plain Talker   11 #1 Posted March 28, 2006 Whilst watching the first part of the D&P 2-parter last night, I had a couple of chuckles, at funnies and errors.  Firstly, the chuckle.. the amsterdam police haul a dead body out of one of the canals. The deceased is decorated with "owls" tattoos.  I did a double take when I first saw the logo on the person's arm, and was pleasantly surprised.  Pascoe explains to the dutch police that "The Owls" are an English football team.  Dalziel pipes up, jokingly "Aye, an' if I were one of their supporters, a'h'd be chucking meself in't canal, too" (or words to that effect. that tickled me)  The error came when Pascoe phoned back to the UK, and mentioned that the deceased was a Sheffield Wednesday supporter.  The young asian police constable pipes up "Okay. i'll get onto WEST Yorkshire Police, straightaway, then".  WEST yorkshire? lol! Since when has Sheffield been in WEST Yorks? West RIDING definitely, but not West Yorks!  PT Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Litha   10 #2 Posted March 28, 2006 heehee well spotted PT , i didnt actually watch it but i love picking up on little funnies like that too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Tricky   10 #3 Posted March 28, 2006 We noticed that too. But before that, the Dutch detective not knowing what SWFC stood for? He would certainly have known what the FC stood for and it wouldn't be rocket science to get from there to the Owls.  It was just a ruse to get some cheap laughs at Wednesday's expense....so they're forgiven Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Plain Talker   11 #4 Posted March 28, 2006 there were errors the other week, too, in the first episode of the football-team coach/ rail crash storyline.  firstly, continuity:- it was very sunny and bright at the time of the crash, yet , immediately after the train struck the coach, it was dark. huh? what happened there?  Also, why did the Wetherton Police "investigate" the rail-crash? it would have been British Transport Police who would have investigated an incident on the tracks.  Still , i suppose, it'd have made for a very short show, wouldn't it, if the BTP had done the investigating.  PT Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
mega_monty   10 #5 Posted March 28, 2006 Pascoe explains to the dutch police that "The Owls" are an English football team. Dalziel pipes up, jokingly "Aye, an' if I were one of their supporters, a'h'd be chucking meself in't canal, too" (or words to that effect. that tickled me) PT  No doubt that would have pleased many a wednesday fan, I couldn't stop laughing when he said that line, then my dad pipes up "Notice how they take the mick out of a northern team rather than a London one" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Plain Talker   11 #9 Posted April 8, 2006 Not a Dalziell and Pascoe error, but I have just watched an episode of "Monk":- "Mister Monk and the Playboy", and seen an error in that.  He solves a crime because an earring is found in someones bed. The earring is for a pierced-ear, and the woman who claims the earring belongs to her, to cover up for the murderer, supposedly has ears that aren't pierced.  Yet, shortly after, she is seen, in close up, and guess what? She is wearing pierced-ear earrings!  duh!  PT Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
