Green Street Hooligans

Character mistake: At the beginning of the film, Matt arrives at Paddington station in West London. He needs to meet his sister who lives in Chelsea - also in West London. However, for some bizarre reason he gets to her via meeting at Bank station - in east London. It makes no sense why he would make such a convoluted journey. Even if as a tourist he simply doesn't know London well enough to make a more efficient journey, his sister - who lives there - would correct him when arranging a meeting point.

Suggested correction: It's possible his sister knew she was going to be in that area anyway so it would be a convenient place for them to meet. There's no mistake here, just something plausible that isn't, and doesn't need to be, explained.

Factual error: Before the trip to Manchester, we see Charlie Hunham and Elijah Wood outside King's Cross station (London's station for trains to the North East & Scotland) with a GNER train in the background. In the next scene, they are shown inside Paddington station (London's station for trains to South Wales, Devon & Cornwall) catching a First Great Western train. The next scene shows a shot of a Silverlink County train, which run from London Euston to Northampton and Birmingham. In these three consecutive scenes we are shown 3 different trains, run by 3 different operators, none of which actually serve Manchester.

Matt Buckner: I've never lived closer to danger, but I've never felt safer. I've never felt more confident, and people could spot it from a mile away. And as for this, the violence? I gotta be honest - it grew on me. Once you've taken a few punches and realise you're not made of glass, you don't feel alive unless you're pushing yourself as far as you can go.
