Other mistake: In one of the first scenes where the girls are in the recording studio singing "Say You'll Be There" study carefully what each of them are wearing. I.E. Mel B is wearing a space suit. Later in the movie, when they're in Milan, they are all seen wearing the same things.

Continuity mistake: Victoria keeps changing position, and changing what she is doing with her mobile phone, while the girls are in the tent in the garden, in their robes.

Hamster

Continuity mistake: The girls' poses and positions after performing Wannabe, in the cafe keep on changing, for example, after they sing, they point in the air, then put their arms down, but then are still pointing in the air again.
