Robert Young's scar is changing cheeks

Am I the only one who noticed that Robert Young at first has the scar on the right side of his face with his right eye effected by it (check it out at 0:38).
A few minutes later (0:40) Young's scar is on the left side of his face and both eyes are normal looking.

I wonder why nobody (not even the make up artist) noticed this while watching the daily rushes?

if i remember correctly, he was staring into a mirror the first time we see the scar. the camera is on the right side of his head, which is turned to the left... so in the mirror, it would APPEAR to be on the left cheek, but its the reflection we are seeing.
