Suggested correction: Grandsanta's portrait is shown in the halls of the North Pole with the dates 1902-1941 (with Malcom having done 71 missions from 1941). Therefore he did 39 missions. That makes for a total of 109 years, meaning he was 27 when he took over from his own father.
Character mistake: When they deliver Xmas presents to Denmark it's already too late - Denmark has the presents on the 24th, early in the evening.
Continuity mistake: Arthur's older brother gets "bombed" by a seagull. In the very next scene, there is nothing on his jacket, but the offending "message" appears again a little later on.
Steve: This is Germany, Father. They drive on the right. National dish: sausage.
Steve: Okay, lets show them people, 'Operation Santa Claus is coming to town!'.
