Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAlthough this is the short story's first screen adaptation, the story has been read nearly every Christmas Eve, or the Friday night closest to it, on CBC Radio One's radio show, "As it Happens" by Alan Maitland since 1979.
- GoofsCanadian pilots used the standard RAF palm out salute - not the palm down 'snap' of the US forces. The phonetic alphabet in WW2 used Charlie Mike Love Dog for C, M, L and D (not Not 'Crocodile', 'Monkey', 'Delta, 'Lima''). The NATO 'standard' was not adopted until 1956 No-one in the RAF ever referred to it as 'the Force' - it was 'the mob' Finally, collar attached shirts didn't come along until 1963. The closest RAF base to Norwich would have been RAF Coltishall.. The Early Warning radar at RAF Trimingham would have picked up a Vampire while it was still in Germany.

Featured review
A decent christmas movie but I wish it was longer
The only thing I didn't like about this movie is it was too short.
A little boring not gonna lie but it was better than most Christmas movies.
The cinematography was incredible and Ben Radcliff was great in it.
I wanna see him in better roles than this because I wanna see him further his acting skills.
I see potential in him!! Especially because I remember watching him in Evermoor Chronicles. Hopefully he'll be casted more after this.
Another thing, because apparently my review is too short. I honestly don't know what else to say.
I only watched this Disney because I was bored and had nothing to do.
