Goofs and Gaffes - Gone to the Angels - Someone's at the door

It seems that John and Lizzie might have a neighbour or two...

Where are we?: Greg crosses the garage forecourt to fuel-up a second vehicle for Abby, so she can drive on to Peter's school in search of the occupants of the abandoned minibus

What's the goof?: As the camera follows Ian McCulloch's progress, the front door of one of the houses opposite opens. The movement is just visible before the door moves out of frame — any more noticeable, and the scene would almost certainly have been reshot.
