Factual error: In the wedding scene at the beginning, the new Mrs. Weston is shown wearing a white dress. This was not the convention at that time; white wedding dresses were pioneered by Queen Victoria (1840-1901). The bride would simply have worn her best dress.
Suggested correction: A white dress may very well have been an unmarried lady's best dress at the time, as it was common for young ladies to wear white.
Continuity mistake: When Emma and Mr. Knightly are practising their archery some arrows disappear from the target. After they have both shot 2 arrows, the target is shown with 4 arrows in it. They each shoot one more and the target is shown again - Emma's arrow is shown hitting it yet there are still only 4 arrows in it in total. (00:23:10)
Emma Woodhouse: Has an invitation arrived for a party at the Coles?
Mr. Woodhouse: No, thank Heaven. The Coles are nice people, but we should have to go outside to get there.
