Continuity mistake: When Christopher Robin first appears in uniform he is wearing second lieutenant's pips. In the following scene, later the same day, they have disappeared, but he is still wearing an open-necked officer's battledress tunic with shirt and tie. He says he is a private. In fact, he joined the Royal Engineers as a sapper (not a private) and was later commissioned.

Factual error: The musicians in the (real) Band of the Coldstream Guards that plays Happy Birthday for Christopher Robin are wearing their 21st-century uniforms and medals.
Daphne Milne: You know what writing a book against war is like? It's like writing a book against Wednesdays. Wednesdays... are a fact of life, and if you don't like them, you could just stay in bed, but you can't stop them because Wednesdays are coming and if today isn't actually a Wednesday it soon will be.
