28 Days (2000)
Other mistake: More than halfway through the film, after Gwen's room-mate has died of an overdose, she rings her sister on a phone that is not only "Emergencies Only", but it has no numbers on it. So how did she dial out?

Rosemary & Thyme (2003)
Plot hole: The girls refer to Holly's owner as Mr Volker, even though they now know her owner is Mr Allbright. For plot reasons, they have to say to Sherry that Mr Volker is Holly's owner, because now she knows she's killed the wrong man, and she'll have to kill again.

Rosemary & Thyme (2003)
Audio problem: Near the end, Suzanne puts the dishwasher on, which is in the kitchen, near the long kitchen table they are all sitting around. At first, we can hear the dishwasher, not very loudly but it's there, but when they expose Suzanne as the killer, the dishwasher is all but silent even though its been running for at most 10 minutes, so it should still be noisy.

Rosemary & Thyme (2003)
Plot hole: The first man to be killed is a psychiatrist - "a very private man". So, if he was "very private", how did the "hip man" know if he did or did not have any psychotic patients who would want to kill him? He wouldn't.

Continuity mistake: When Snow White, in armour, and her followers are in the Queen's chamber and they fight "nail-men", one man is seen wearing a harness on his back, so when one "nail-man" throws him over, doing a 360, he is able to complete the feat. Then, in a second, as the "nail-man" propels the man up the wall, the harness is gone.

Plot hole: In the garden, when Rosemary and Laura haven't done much clearing away yet, a girl loses her mobile in the garden. Instead of spending "hours" searching for it, why don't they just ring it? Or explain that the battery is dead and they can't ring it?
