Factual error: When M tells Allan Quatermain that he and his team have four days to go from London to Venice, he answers that this is impossible, and captain Nemo replies that it will be possible thanks to his science-fictional devices.

For example, the Peninsular Express departed every Friday afternoon from London, and it arrived at Brindisi, a considerably more distant town in southern Italy, on Sunday afternoon. (00:16:39)
