Other mistake: When Baines takes Ada to bed, and she removes her clothes, her skin is smooth without blemishes. This would not be the case in real life when wearing corsets etc. They leave indentations on the skin.
Other mistake: When Ada and Baines make love and Stewart peeps through a crack in the wall he puts his ear to the wood, not his eye. (01:13:55)
Continuity mistake: When Baines has his first 'piano lesson' Flora asks to be allowed in. Ada declines, and when she goes back in the house her playing starts immediately when she closes the door, way before she could have walked to the piano and sat down. (00:40:40)
Flora: She says its her piano and she won't have him touch it. He's an oaf. He can't read. He's ignorant.
Stewart: He wants to improve himself. And you'll be able to play it. Teach him how to look after it. You can't go on like this. We're a family now. We all make sacrifices and so will you! You will teach him and I will see to it.
