  • However, the tickets are scheduled for a date after the band went on hiatus.

One Direction fans have noticed a tour date blunder in the new Netflix series "Kaleidoscope."

The series, which can be watched in almost any order, follows a group of criminals as they carry out a heist on an underground safe during a storm.

In the episode "Green," set seven years before the heist takes place, we see one of the criminals Judy (Rosaline Elbay) try and smuggle sim cards to her boyfriend in prison, Stan Loomis (Peter Mark Kendall). When she gets stopped by one of the prison officers, Judy bribes her with tickets to a One Direction concert.

However, one fan of the former band was quick to notice that the date on the ticket — March 6, 2016 — is long after One Direction went on hiatus.

The fan tweeted: "WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT ONE DIRECTION TOUR TICKETS IN 2016 MENTIONED IN THE NETFLIX SERIES #KALEIDOSCOPE !!!??? THE FACT THAT 1D WENT ON HIATUS IN 2015 AND WEREN'T EVEN TOGETHER IN 2016!!??? ALSO THEY PLAYED MSG ONLY ONCE IN 2012 WTFF. IT HURTS BEING A DIRECTIONER."

 

As the tweet pointed out, although One Direction officially went on an indefinite hiatus in January 2016, their last concert was in October 2015 when they finished their "On The Road" tour. That means the world tour advertised on the ticket would not be possible unless the band did not go on hiatus in the lore of "Kaleidoscope."

One Direction announced their plan to go on an extended hiatus in August 2015. This was after Zayn Malik, one of the original members of the band, who formed in 2010 on the UK version of "The X Factor," left to pursue a solo career.

In addition, the ticket says that the concert would be on a Saturday when, in reality, March 5, 2016, was a Sunday.

Insider has reached out to representatives of Netflix for comment.

"Kaleidoscope" is available to watch on Netflix.
