Mistake Continuity: When John talks to the woman by the staircase if you look at the clock above his head it reads 3:25. In the very next shot of George going into the TV producers office the same clock now reads 6:20.

Mistake Continuity: In the lunch car as Paul signs the picture for his grandfather he's holding it with his right hand. In the next shot his hand has moved and he's holding in with his thumb.

Mistake Revealing: Ringo meets up with a young boy while he's out 'parading' who says, "I'm a deserter" after Ringo inquires about why he's not in school. As the boy says this line there's an out of focus close-up of Ringo.

Mistake Factual error: They're meant to be taping a TV show, but some of the cameras were motion picture cameras used for shooting the movie, rather than TV cameras.

Mistake Continuity: In this scene George passes a poster that reads "Hughes and Macready". Two shots later it's back in a different place place.

Mistake Continuity: The clock on the wall is constantly changing time in this scene. You can see it several times and you can see its reflection in the mirror.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: The cameraman's shadow and reflection are seen on the left of the photo booth that the Beatles were hiding in during the opening scenes.

Mistake Continuity: Upon their return the TV producer says to The Beatles, " You don't know what this means to me, if you hadn't come back it would have meant The Epilogue or News in Welsh" as they get ready for the show. Norm is standing behind the producer but then in the next shot as he talks to him he's on his right.

Mistake Audio problem: After the scene in the TV producer's office with George there's a shot of rehearsals going on at the TV studio with an older actor singing a German opera. His lips are mouthing something else.

Mistake Continuity: When John says to Paul's grandfather, "Ya see you know what your trouble is, you should have gone West to America," they're standing about six feet apart, but in the next shot John has his arm on his shoulder.

Mistake Continuity: After the show, Norm tells The Beatles to get ready to leave for a midnight matinee later that night and the clock on the wall reads 9:10 PM. It's well after dark but in the next shot as they board the helicopter for the next show it's midday.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: In the second verse of "If I Fell" there's a shot from behind Ringo. Just as they sing, "If I trust in you" you can see a crewmember's head bobbing up and down at the bottom right of the screen. We see this place in previous and subsequent shots and no one is sitting there.

Mistake Continuity: At the end of "I Should Have Known Better" there's a lone drumstick that appears wedged into a tuning key on the front of Ringo's bass drum that wasn't there in previous shots.

Mistake Audio problem: John stops strumming his guitar on the intro to "If I Fell" but we still hear the guitar playing.

Mistake Continuity: When Paul's grandfather is below the stage the pictures are on his left. As he emerges on the stage the pictures are now on his right.

Mistake Continuity: When the rude man comes into the Beatles compartment in the train scene, you can plainly see that the armrest between him and John is already down, but in the next shot, the man puts it down.

Mistake Audio problem: When George sings, "I don't need to hug or hold you tight" from "I'm happy just to dance with you" he's lip-syncing the wrong words.

Mistake Audio problem: When they sing "I Should Have Known Better" for the TV show there's a shot of John playing his harmonica just before he sings, "Wo oo oo I" and the harmonica is still in his mouth as we hear him sing the beginning of the verse.

Mistake Audio problem: As The Beatles go out of the fire escape door Ringo shouts, "We're out" just before "Can't buy me love" starts playing. If you look closely at his lips he doesn't actually say anything.

Mistake Other: An old woman in a dress shop peeps out to see all the cameras in front of her store before the Beatles run by on their way back to the studio.
