- Movie Goof (continuity error): When Joe sits down to speak to Miss Pettigrew in the nightclub, his cigarette changes from a tiny stub to almost one-third cigarette's length between shots.
- Movie Goof (incorrectly regarded as a mistake): In the closing scenes Miss Pettigrew is seen leaving the nightclub through a dressing room. The "WAY OUT" sign was probably Lexan with indirect lighting. Lexan was not invented until well after WWII and not in widespread use until the 1980s. However, similar signs made from plate glass with a slight green tint were made in the 20s if not earlier, so the sign as shown is in reality true to the era.
- Movie Goof (factual errors): The film takes place immediately before the outbreak of World War II, when England told Germany that they would declare war if Germany invaded Poland. Germany did so, and England declared war in early September, 1939. However, the film depicts an advanced state of autumn, with cool winds, dead leaves, etc. In actuality, war was declared on a beautiful late summer's day in England. It was not yet autumn.
- Movie Goof (continuity error): On the balcony, Miss Pettigrew is talking to Edith. The two soldier extras behind Edith are in the shot. Edith switches places and the same two extras are in the shot on the other side of the balcony. As Edith switches back to the first side, the same two extras enter the balcony from the sides she is on. There's no way for them to have gotten from one side of the balcony to other in half a second.
