The Living Daylights

Revealing mistake: At the end of the movie after Necros falls from the plane the camera cuts back to Bond, as he tries to struggle his way out of the nest. If you look closely under the nest you can see Necros at the start of his fall again. Also notice Necros is replaced by a dummy.

Revealing mistake: Saunders is not in the door-way when the bomb launching the glass door goes off. He actually jumps forward to get there in time to get caught.

Jacob La Cour

Factual error: In the "Soviet" base in Afghanistan, every equipment, from armoured carriers to light tanks, is of French manufacture. And the transport plane is an American C-130 Hercules.

Question: When Pushkin wakes up after Bond pretends to kill him at the press conference, he apologises to his wife/girlfriend for putting her through the trauma. But since she was in the bathroom when Bond was there interrogating Pushkin (about Koskov etc.), wouldn't she have heard Bond and Pushkin discussing the staged assassination (after Pushkin says "Then I must die")?

Heather Benton

Chosen answer: She could have been let go off screen once it was clear that Bond wasn't going to kill Pushkin, so they could formulate the plan in secret.
