Corrected entry: In the scene when Billy Bright comes home from the pub after overhearing Harris and others in the firm "mugging him off", he sits in his living room staring blankly at the TV thinking. His wife Barbara holds out a steel plate with his dinner on it through the serving hatch and calls to him to which he doesn't answer. She then seconds later walks into the living room, however she is now holding a blue plate with the same meal on it.

Correction: At first glance, this seems the case, however looking at the plate closely, it is in fact the reflection from the lights in the room which makes the plate looks like steel. It is also highly unlikely his dinner would be served on a steel plate. You can see the bottom rim of the plate where no color exists (i.e. where the china's been cut) in both shots.

Continuity mistake: They are on the way to Liverpool, where they stop "Up North" and Zeberdee and Raff are kicked out by Bill to discover Liverpool fans nearby. The ruckus ensues and they get back on the coach. They then pull up at services. Surely at the Zeb and Raff scene, they must have been pretty close to Liverpool, but they still drive on and go to a service station that must have been (by the flow of events) slap bang in the centre of Liverpool.
