I also forgot the episode they wrote is "time travel" in a way - it is set a month in the future! http://theavengers.tv/forever/gale1-7vr.htm

With the first 3 seasons the blooper reels were pretty much left in the episodes, as they could only afford a couple of edits per story, and those were spoken-for in the director's shooting schedule (for major scene/costume changes etc). The surviving first recording of Sydney Newman's Doctor Who consists of a few runs at half the episode at a time, to be edited later, which are full of gaffes - it was so bad they had to re-do the entire thing some weeks later. Strangely the BBC kept that recording, even though they didn't broadcast it until decades later as a curio, so maybe somewhere there's a "Hot Snow" in unedited form lying around... perhaps that's even why only one "reel"/Act exists? Unlikely, but stranger things have happened.

Marking up the map in Intercrime... with the next planned operations in Bristol, Carlisle and Glasgow... which all seem to be on the northeast border of Wales.... I think the actor was a bit geographically unaware! A shame, after they bigged up Leeds and Newcastle earlier in the episode.

Huh? Bristol, Glasgow and Carlisle are nowhere near northeast Wales. Or are you saying that was the line, in which case it's the script writer's fault.

Despite appearances 'The War Marshall' only has brass Key lock Barrels on one side, the other side is a plain black panel. The prop is obviously turned around in some shots to give the illusion that both sides have detailing, in other shots they either didn't bother or simply forgot.

Just watched Room Without A View, The old fella ages and changes sex within 20 seconds in the opening scene. I don't know who the young female hand belongs too that grabs the curtains but it certain isn't attached the wrist of the old chap Laughing
