Factual error: During Lizzie's visit to Rosings Park, Lady Catherine presses her to stay longer, saying that if she will stay another month, she will be able to accommodate Lizzie "on the barouche-box" as far as London. This is nonsensical. What Austen actually wrote (Ch. 37) was: "And if you will stay another month complete, it will be in my power to take one of you as far as London, for I am going there early in June for a week; and as Dawson does not object to the barouche-box, there will be very good room for one of you. . ." The box is the coachman's seat on top of the carriage. Dawson is a servant, but if there were enough room inside the carriage, she would ride inside. What Lady Catherine is doing is offering Dawson's inside place to Lizzie. But in the movie, she is offering to let Lizzie ride outside next to the coachman. Not much of a treat.

Episode #1.6 - S1-E6
Visible crew/equipment: When Lady Catherine de Bourgh and Lizzie are by the carriage (right after Lady Catherine de Bourgh questions whether Lizzie is engaged to Mr. Darcy), there's a camera or some sort of device visible. (00:36:40)
Suggested correction: The device being referred to looks like a lamp, which is part of the carriage. Therefore, it is not a mistake.
Mr. Bennet: For what do we live, but to make sport for our neighbours, and laugh at them in our turn?
Trivia: The exterior shots of Pemberley were filmed outside Lyme Park, in Cheshire.
Episode #1.3 - S1-E3
Question: When the Gardiners arrive at Longbourn for Christmas, where are their children? Surely, they would not have travelled without their children at Christmas.
Answer: The children were probably left with a nanny or relatives. It's very likely that the Longborns would have left them at home. Travelling for days by horse-drawn carriage over bumpy dirt roads is difficult in the best of circumstances, and particularly hard during winter. The trip would be too arduous for young children.
