Continuity mistake: Honey and Bond are washing up near the waterfall. The back of her shirt is soaking wet. She comes out of the water later in the scene, and her shirt is dry.

Visible crew/equipment: The woman in a bathrobe calls Bond to give him directions. The camera pushes in on her. On the left side, the shadow it casts creeps into the shot.

Continuity mistake: During the fight with the escort from the airport, it's clear it's midday. Toward the end of the scene, the sun is further down as the lighting changes significantly.

Trivia

Trivia: Sean Connery started going bald when he was 21. In 'Dr. No' (he was 32 then) and any subsequent movies in which he has hair, he was actually wearing a hairpiece.

Suggested correction: Contrary to popular belief, Sir Sean Connery was not wearing a hairpiece in his first two outings as James Bond. Although he was already balding by the time Dr. No was in production, he still had a decent amount of hair and the filmmakers used varying techniques to make the most of what was left. By the time of Goldfinger (1964), Connery's hair was too thin and so various toupees were used for his last Bond outings.

Questions

Question: After getting caught and locked up in Dr. No's lair they have some coffee which made them fall asleep. What was the point of this?

Answer: The scene is fairly faithfully adapted from the Ian Fleming novel, in which Dr. No enters the room and "examines" Bond and Ryder (who are both naked in the book and passed out on their beds rather than on the floor). It's not really explained in either medium why he does this, but the book is a bit more detailed about No checking them out in a kind of medical/physical sense.
