As the Cybernaut smashing through the metal door to get to Steed in 'Last of the Cybernauts ?' human skin can be seen when the arms are revealed as the shirt sleeves rise up.

Who Was That Man I Saw You With. In the very first scenes the 'Field Marshal' has silver panels with Key barrels & detailing etc on both sides. In subsequent shots this detailed panel is only on one side, the other side is plain black.

In a Surfeit of H2O as Steed tries to kick in the factory door the entire brick wall surrounding it wobbles lol

Not sure if this is a blooper, but oddly in some of the earlier scenes in How to Succeed at Murder, 'Henrietta', when shot from behind, is being played by a living actress. She even twitches her thumb. This is before the big reveal that she is actually a puppet, so in a way it's conning the viewer. And before anyone says it, I know these things weren't made with the knowledge that one day they'd be scrutinised in high definition on DVD, but even so, it's still a rather misleading thing to do.

This is NO puppet !!

At a guess I'd say it's this woman ...

Same thing in Have Guns - will Haggle - where the mannequin behind the curtain is a stunt person.
(And, dare I say it?, of course the stunt person in place of the mannequin that's dragged away by the alien plant in Man-eater of Surrey Green )

Watched "Love All" a couple of days ago. When Tara is in the window, contemplating a suicidal jump, she looks down at the street below and it's empty beneath her. We then see her view of Steed pulling up and parking directly below her. He gets out of the car, looks up and spots her. He then rushes immediately into the building. We then have two more cuts of Tara's view of the road below and Steed's car has magically vanished!

There was an edit there - he thought "if she jumps she'll land on the car damaging it" so he moved it just in case;)

As he's on his own, it's probably his imagination bringing her to life.

'The Curious Case Of The Countless Clues' - Tara King shows her knickers on more than one occasion during this episode

The Camera Mans foot can be seen on the edge of the building as he films (from the roof) Diana Rigg arriving at the dance school in 'How To Succeed ... At Murder'.
