Continuity: The king's youngest daughter climbs down a wall and drops a tightly sealed Erlenmeyer flask (invented centuries later) filled with a toxic potion. The flask is full when it is dropped, but partly empty after it has been caught and handed back to her by her spouse's earlier visitor.

Continuity: On the way to the witch's castle the king's daughter falls into a river. She is totally drenched, but a moment later part of her hair is already dry again.

Audio problem: The fanfare player who announces the birth of the Polar Bear King's first daughter should have stuck to his instrument's overtones and not play a tune that requires trumpet valves.
