Caravan Club - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: When Simon pays for the items, there is just a woman behind him, but when Jay throws the adult mag and the assistant asks if he needs a bag, Simon looks back and there is now a man with a grey shirt on behind him too. (00:07:25)

First Day - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Will says "Sir." to Mr Gilbert in the pub (after Gilbert says "I'll make sure you get another badge for this"), a man in grey trousers and a blue jacket can be seen standing inside the pub at the top left of the screen. Not only is everyone supposed to have left the pub at this point, but he wasn't visible in the previous identical shot of Will. (00:19:51)

Caravan Club - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: Simon is driving Will and Neil to Camber Sands and there is traffic on the opposite carriage way and he is in the fast lane on the motorway. When it goes to the overhead shot of the car doing 100mph, he is in the left lane on a much smaller road with no traffic or the crash barriers which all motorways have.

First Day - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Simon sits down with Carlie and Tony, they're just getting their drinks, and Will begins arguing with the barman about his ID. In the next sequence of shots, Carlie and Tony have finished their drinks and are leaving - but Will is still arguing about his ID. How long has the barman been putting up with him for?

Bunk Off - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Will is looking for clothes to wear to convince the off license owner. Will grabs Simon's dad's suit where Simon says "not the suit" twice. Both times are the same clip and audio played again. (00:05:26)

Thorpe Park - S1-E3

Factual error: The same number plate can be seen on two different vehicles in this episode. The registration M483LTH can be seen on the hearse and then on Simon's car when parking. No two vehicles in the UK will ever share a number plate. (00:11:10 - 00:12:30)

Bunk Off - S1-E2

Question: Why do the boys decide to steal their parent's booze? They have three bottles of spirits between four of them, which is more than enough for them to get drunk. In fact, in Will Is Home Alone, they share twenty cans of beer between the four of them (five each, all things being equal), and are dreadfully hungover the next morning. Assume this is classed as a character mistake, it just makes no sense.

Answer: Jay, Si and Will steal Simons dad booze as they are planning on meeting Carly later on and have lost their own supply when kicked out of Neil's place by his dad after being caught and insulted.
