Factual error: Peter and Lizzie play their semi-finals on the same day, but the men's semis are the day after the women's at Wimbledon (unless there has been significant rain, which there wasn't).

⇓

Factual error: Peter and Lizzie are shown driving out of London in the early evening summer sun to escape to Peter's home in Brighton. This is about half way through the film. There is a clear shot of the car driving west on the A4 out of town. As Brighton is directly south of London this is definitely not the way you'd drive. If you wanted to go to Brighton from central London you'd take the A23/M23 all the way.

⇓

Factual error: Peter Colt's men's semi-final appears to take place on an outside rather than show (Centre or Number 1) court. This would only ever happen if there had been sustained rain, which didn't happen.

Continuity: On the London Eye, Peter and Lizzie are looking at the Houses of Parliament from quite a height, so they've got around ten minutes before they're back on the ground (a "flight" takes around 30 mins). Jake walks up, Peter punches him, then immediately they run off in the hubbub afterwards, suddenly back at ground level.

Continuity: In a couple of close up head shots of Paul Bettany in the final match, the tag in his shirt is visible. In one shot the size of the t-shirt is L (large), in a later shot within the same scene it says M (medium).

Continuity: When Peter goes out to play Ajay Bhatt in his first round match, we hear him thinking "It all ends here, at 2pm on Court 17". Later, after Peter has won the first point the camera pans back over him and the scoreboard, which reads "Court No. 8".

Revealing: Before Peter Colt plays his first round match there is an aerial shot panning across the Wimbledon complex with the commentator declaring, "this is the first day of Wimbledon." However, the aerial shot shows most of the courts are badly worn, as they would be at the end of the tournament. On the first day they, are always lush and green. The shot was taken from archive footage showing the end of a Wimbledon Championship.

Continuity: When Lizzie and Peter escape the Slazenger party and Peter starts to drive, there is no traffic behind them. But when Lizzie kisses him, distracting him from the road, there is suddenly a big red bus behind the car.

Continuity: In the final match scene when the rain comes Peter is laying on the ground. He turns onto his back and his shirt is very nearly clean. Then as he sits up his valet says "What are you doing, Lad? Get in here!" Peter's shirt has a large mud stain on it.

Continuity: when Peter stays behind to work on his serve, he has 5 ball tubes and 2 beer cans in his hand (which he is using for target practice). The number of tubes on the court and the position of them changes countless times while he is serving with Lizzie.
