Revealing mistake: When the Parker Brothers run to the side door of the ghost-train, which is supposedly in Blackpool Pleasure Beach, you can see it's a fake set built in a carpark, because the carpark bay marking lines disappear under the wall of the ghost-train. (00:29:35)
Revealing mistake: When Katie is making Sharkey levitate as part of her circus act, you can see the shadow of some rigging connecting him to a nearby pillar. (01:43:50)
Continuity mistake: When Tommy is buying the right to perform the Parker brothers' material, Tommy asks to see the material that he's just bought. He stands up and turns the chair round so that it's facing away from the table. The shot then changes, and he turns the chair round so that it's facing away from the table again.
