Pettson has a hard time keeping the project secret from Findus and getting the machine to actually work in due time. But somehow a mysterious magical force interferes...
This Christmas Calendar is based on stories written by children and teenagers between the ages of 8 and 17. Each episode features several of these stories presented in dramatized form. Here, fairy tales blend with reality, with adventures taking place in places such as the space age, the world of dreams, and the realm of fairy tales. We meet elves and trolls, princesses and knights, and much more! The program was broadcast live, with host Staffan Ling welcoming various guests in the studio. The filmed stories were interspersed with competitions, Christmas tips, and music.
