Lola's age

I'm sure someone in the film said that Lola is 13 yet she can drive and has a credit card. If she was born in series 5 then she would be older than 13. Was it just a script typo?

Saffron's daughter was born in season five which aired in 2003, making her thirteen. Haven't seen the movie yet, and can't comment on driving privileges, but minors can get their own credit cards when they are authorized users on someone else's account. Basically meaning something like Saffy has the line of credit which Lola piggybacks on even though the card would be in Lola's name.

Obviously she didn't have a driving license! God, it's supposed to be funny that the 13 yr old is driving Edina and Patsy - the adults!
Duh!

The card is her fathers (that's covered repetitively) and of course she's driving, Edina and Patsy are drunk, for those two, having the sober 13 year old drive is the responsible choice. They do state in the film that she's 13.

Are you kidding? Growing up with a grandma like Eddie and practically aunt Patsy, I'm sure Lola has all kinds of skills most teenagers don't. She seemed very comfortable at the adult fashion party. Wasn't her first time doing that sort of thing.

No two persons ever watch the same movie.
