Trivia
Joe Wright specifically instructed Keira Knightley never to pout, throughout the whole film. There is, however, one scene in where she does, but that scene was shot by the second unit without the director present. According to Knightley, Wright still complains when watching the film over her breaking this 'pout ban'.

Penelope Wilton was also working on Match Point (2005) and Doctor Who (2005) at the same time.

The scene where Bingley rehearses proposing to Jane was improvised. Initially, it was supposed to be shorter, but Simon Woods' was so good that the scene was lengthened.

Goofs
When Mr. Darcy helps Lizzie into the carriage, the hand shot shows her in the process of sitting down, but the next cut shows her still standing.

Around the Bennett's home are several Wellingtonias - Sequoia which were not introduced into Britain before the 1850's.

While sitting in the woods "quite close to" Mr Darcy's house with her Aunt and Uncle, Lizzie is wearing a dark brown dress with a lighter colored coat. But when they go to see the house, Lizzie's dress has changed to a cream striped dress with the same coat as before. In the book the party of 3 decide to visit Pemberley the following day. In this film the changing of the dress and the fact that they clearly arrive at Pemberly in the early morning are supposed to indicate albeit rather subtly that it is the following day without having written it into the script.
