Continuity mistake: When Hugh and Sandra are stuck together in the toilet, as David Haig walks in Hugh turns around, and Sandra's head is to the right of his leg, so from the other side we should see her face quite from the other angle. However, when we switch to that view, her head's hidden completely behind his crotch, making it look far more dodgy.

Trivia: In the trailers (on the radio in the UK, anyway), there's a bit with Hugh Grant saying something like "This is no job for a grown up - drinking without being responsible...actually, it doesn't sound that bad". This was never in the finished film.
