Continuity mistake: When Jon and the others emerge onto the other side of the wall, there are 4 people with torches. Pay attention to the one at the back on the screen left.

Continuity mistake: When the group of men emerge at the other side of the wall, the last man with a torch has it held vertically. Camera cuts and now it is held at around a 45 degree angle. (00:44:30)
Continuity mistake: When Jon is taking his vow at the tree, the red markings on the tree change between shots. 2 single lines become joined, and a third single line becomes less smudged. (00:45:00)
