A woman with a white cap can be seen holding a script. Later when the police use a megaphone on their car to announce the spaceship is a hoax, you can again see the same woman with a white cap in one of the windows of the police car. 42350 The flashlight that the drillman used when the lights went out around the spaceship didn't match the light from the spot used by the film crew. 42354 A skeleton of early man is found by a workman digging through mud at an extension to the Underground railway system in London. The skeleton, however, shows no mud inside the rib cage or other body cavities. 43069 At the beginning of the film when the first skull is found, the black workman is holding a cigarette in his right hand when he tosses the skull to the foreman: The next shot cuts in and the foreman says "It may be worth money" the cigarette is now in the left hand of the black workman. 43496 The man who was electrocuted and killed inside the hull of the spaceship is carried on a board and is laid down on the platform, just after Quatermass says "He's dead" he covers the dead man with a sheet that magically appears from nowhere between shots.
