Factual error: When the lunar module lands on the moon, you can see light coming through the windows and everyone is fully dressed. In reality, Neil Armstrong stepped onto the moon at 2:53 AM London time. It would have been completely dark and everyone would have likely been in night clothes or evening attire.

Starring: Matt Smith, Claire Foy, Vanessa Kirby, Victoria Hamilton
Continuity mistake: On the morning of King George VI's death, the King's valet is in the dumbwaiter lift bringing up the King's tea and breakfast. Inside the lift shows the valet pulling the rope as it raises to the King's sleeping floor. The waiters are facing front and away from the valet, and the covered wall light is located closest to the main door with the rope in the left-rear corner. As the lift stops, the waiters are now facing the valet to the left, and the covered wall light is now located closest to the rear of the lift with the main rope now located in the left-front corner. These two scenes were filmed in two separate sets. (00:23:05)
