The Twins and Santa

Did you know that the popular children's TV Christmas calendar, the Twins and Santa (in Danish: Tvillingerne og Julemanden) was filmed in North Jutland? It is the follow-up Christmas calendar to Ludvig and Santa (also filmed in North Jutland).

The much-loved children's TV Christmas calendar, the Twins and Santa were aired on Danish TV2 in 2013. The twins are helping Santa in the fight against the evil Doctor Schwartz, played by Nicolaj Kopernikus. Returning character, Santa, is once again played by the Danish comedian Lars Hjortshøj. Furthermore, Camilla Bendixen plays the role of the wife of Santa.
