Corrected entry: In the scene when Billy Bright comes home from the pub after overhearing Harris and others in the firm "mugging him off", he sits in his living room staring blankly at the TV thinking. His wife Barbara holds out a steel plate with his dinner on it through the serving hatch and calls to him to which he doesn't answer. She then seconds later walks into the living room, however she is now holding a blue plate with the same meal on it.

Correction: At first glance, this seems the case, however looking at the plate closely, it is in fact the reflection from the lights in the room which makes the plate looks like steel. It is also highly unlikely his dinner would be served on a steel plate. You can see the bottom rim of the plate where no color exists (i.e. where the china's been cut) in both shots.

Continuity mistake: Bill and Albert are having a drink and smoke by the window when it is raining. The first shot shows the rain thrashing down on the window and dripping off it. But it cuts to a different shot. It is still raining, but there isn't a drip coming off the window.

Tommy Johnson: What else are you gonna do on a Saturday? Sit in your fuckin' armchair wankin' off to Pop Idols? Then try and avoid your wife's gaze as you struggle to come to terms with your sexless marriage? Then go and spunk your wages on kebabs, fruit machines and brasses? Fuck that for a laugh! I know what I'd rather do. Tottenham away, love it.
