Phoenix Nights

Show generally

Revealing mistake: If you look at Les out of Les Alano's' drumming, several time throughout the whole show, you can see he is miming and his stick is not even close to the actual drum.

Season 1 Episode 2 - S1-E2

Other mistake: At the start of the line dancing scene where Ray Von is deejaying, if you have the subtitles on, it says the song is Hillbilly Rock, Hillbilly Roll by the Woolpackers. It's actually 5,6,7,8 by Steps. (I'm quite embarrassed I know that).
