Goofs The mysterious nocturnal opening of Anne's window is to be remedied with bars placed across it - but when the workmen are seen at work, they are going to bar a sash window, which doesn't open outwards, but slides one panel of panes behind another. Furthermore, the bars are on the inside of the window, so why were the workmen climbing ladders on the outside of the house? They would have done the work inside the house. As noted above, when the workmen are working on the window, it is a sash window, but when seen from the inside, as when it is flapping in the wind, Lady Anne's window opens like a door. See more »
