At 20.20, Pitkin's spade suddenly reappears as he leaves the army base.

At 38 minutes, the action takes place after D-Day when all Allied aircraft had alternate black-and-white stripes around the wings and fuselage. The Dakota used for the parachute drop had no such stripes.

At 23 minutes, Mr Grimsdale receives his call up papers. They would not be sent to his place of work.
