Corrected entry: When the boys see Neil's car in his driveway, it has a registration plate. However Neil then says that it isn't completely built yet and doesn't have an engine. A car cannot have a registration plate if it hasn't had an engine installed, because the fuel type and emissions of the engine are required data for the registration process.
The Inbetweeners (2008)
1 corrected entry in Night Out in London
Starring: Simon Bird, James Buckley, Joe Thomas, Blake Harrison
Genres: Comedy
Caravan Club - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: At 9 minutes 29 seconds, Neil is holding a bottle of Heinz sauce, but at 9 minutes 40 seconds, Neil asks for the sauce and it is behind Jay's mum. (00:09:25)
Trivia: Although they play father and son in this series, Alex Macqueen is only eleven years older than Blake Harrison.
Question: Why do the boys decide to steal their parent's booze? They have three bottles of spirits between four of them, which is more than enough for them to get drunk. In fact, in Will Is Home Alone, they share twenty cans of beer between the four of them (five each, all things being equal), and are dreadfully hungover the next morning. Assume this is classed as a character mistake, it just makes no sense.

Correction: What Neil says earlier in the episode is "I got a car... Last weekend" - there is no mention of it not being built, or even working. What Neil also says later in the episode is "I ain't got it [the car] going yet - it don't work... [My mechanic] Dave's trying to find me [an engine]". Based on Neil's intelligence as presented in the show its entirely plausible he's bought a car second hand that doesn't work or has stopped working. The number plate would have been assigned to the vehicle when it was registered new, and doesn't change when the car changes owner.
