Goodbye Christopher Robin

Factual error: Christopher Robin and his schoolmates undergo the army medical (which he fails) at the outbreak of war. In fact, Christopher Robin had left school and was at Cambridge by the time the war broke out. In addition, those that pass the medical go off to war in privates' uniforms. As the school (Stowe) is a prestigious public school, almost all would have been commissioned and never served as privates.

Daphne Milne: I you don't think about a thing, then it ceases to exist. It's true, I read about it. It's all in Plato. It's called philosophy.
Alan Milne: Oh, philosophy. Well, I hope you know you're laughing at Plato.
Daphne Milne: Blue, life is full of frightful things. The great thing is to find something to be happy about and stick to that.
