Continuity mistake: During the song "Lay All Your Love on Me" on the beach, when Sophie lies back and then Sky is on top of her, in this closeup we see Sophie's wearing something else over her swimsuit. It's visible below her waist and as she lifts her right leg. (00:45:00)
Visible crew/equipment: When singing Dancing Queen an extra is seen falling off a ladder. If you look at the front of his shirt, a safety cable can be seen. (00:37:15)
Revealing mistake: After Sophie faints at her bachelorette party, during the next scene it cuts back and forth between shots taking place in two rooms - Donna walking into Tanya and Rosie's room, then Sophie walking into Ali and Lisa's room, and both rooms have the very same cracks and stains on the walls revealing it was filmed in the same room, but with different furniture.
Continuity mistake: When Rosie and Tanya follow Donna into the bathroom, during the "Chiquitita" scene the flower pot on the windowsill moves back and forth from the left side to the right side.
Continuity mistake: When Tanya is singing "Does Your Mother Know", she walks away from the bar and goes out to the beach to join the crowd of men who are dancing. As she's walking, there's a side shot of her, and in the background you see an extra with a towel around her waist wearing red wayfarer sunglasses. But then there's a face-on shot of Tanya, and the extra's sunglasses have disappeared. (01:10:30)
Visible crew/equipment: While Sophie's with Lisa and Ali at the dock, after they admire Sophie's engagement ring Lisa bends down to pick up her handbag, and there's a rather large bulge at her lower back under her top - presumably the mic pack, which wasn't there when Lisa lifted Sophie and spun her around.
Continuity mistake: While Ali and Lisa are trying on the dresses for Sophie's wedding, after Sky leaves the room with his props, when Ali and Lisa stand up only one side of Ali's dress is over her shoulders in the shot facing Sophie, but in the shot facing Ali and Lisa both sides are over Ali's shoulders properly.
Continuity mistake: When Sky is getting his hat and cigar as "props" for his stag party, as he leaves the room wearing the hat and holding the cigar. In the second shot as he walks past Sophie, there is a long loose cord hanging down from the brim of the hat - which wasn't there in the first shot. (00:10:00)
Chosen answer: Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan got married because they loved each other and had done for many years. The daughter changed her mind about getting married because she realised what really mattered to her and that seeing the world while they were young and free wasn't such a bad idea after all, that she didn't need to get married and hang around for her mother's sake.
