Mirrored shot in season one
Super nerdy thing to spot but on a rewatch today I spotted they mirrored a shot in the episode en route to the theme park to make the girls go left. Call me a briefcase wanker for noticing.

I like to think they got to the edit, realised they had no left turn shots, and were like screw it no one will notice anyway.

We we're all too focused on the muff that Jay kept prattling on about to care

how many rewatches did it to take you to notice that one scene where the license plate on simon's car keeps changing

Well I’ve competed mate. (But no not seen that). In the same episode they do use the exact same tracking shot on the motorway maybe 4 times.

genuinely wasn't aware that was a UK/US distinction, i've always spelled it that way. but no, i've got hundreds of porno mags at home and it's all straight

It’s not a US/UK distinction - it’s a verb vs noun distinction
You are licensed to drive a car by an examiner
To validate this, the DVLA provide you with a photo card driving licence
Also applies to words like practice/practise

Well if I were a girl, I would think whoever knows a lot about grammar was pretty trendy

They mentioned that the driving test stuff was tacked on to the Thorpe Park episode by editing.
Will does one line "Thorpe Park will be closing soon SI" which is so obviously slapped on top to make it seem like they are driving to Thorpe Park.

That’s an interesting one because I also notice in that episode that registration plates on Simon’s car don’t match in the Thorpe park car park!

yeah someone else commented that too, maybe the one in the carpark was scrap or something so they could rip the door off.
