Love Actually

Continuity mistake: Toward the end of the film when Sam reaches the gate from which Joanna and her mother are departing, he looks down to see them in the boarding line with several people behind them. When he races down to say goodbye, Joanna is last in line.

Factual error: When Billy Mack hears he is No. 1, the DJ, (Radio 1's Wes, who does the chart in reality) says the two singles which could be No. 1, then announces Billy is and plays it, without playing the no. 2 song first. The chart is done as an uninterrupted countdown, so even if it's known what no. 1 will be, they'll still play the "losing" song before it.

Revealing mistake: This is really a reverse mistake resulting in NON-visible crew. When the U.S. President's black limo arrives and stops so that the camera is facing the car's left rear side, you can see that the car has been smeared - unevenly - with some sort of gel to prevent us from seeing the reflection of the lights, crew, and the set opposite Downing Street.

Natalie: Hello, David. I mean "sir." Shit, I can't believe I've just said that. Oh, and now I've gone and said "shit" - twice. I'm so sorry, sir.
Prime Minister: It's fine, it's fine. You could've said "fuck", and then we'd have been in real trouble.
Natalie: Thank you, sir. I did have an awful premonition that I was going to fuck up on the first day. Oh, piss it!

Question: Even if Karl and Sarah don't get together at the end, I couldn't see what exactly was stopping them?
