Notes[]

  • Grumpy is the only Dwarf to have prominent speaking lines throughout the special. The other Dwarfs only speak either while singing or talking at once, although Doc has three speaking lines and Happy has one brief solo verse in "You're Never Too Old".
  • In the part where Dick Van Dyke discusses how the Dwarfs might have sounded if other actors voiced them, the Dwarfs are voiced after the mannerisms of Hollywood celebrities:
    • Grumpy has a Humphrey Bogart type of voice.
    • Doc has a Jimmy Stewart type of voice.
    • Bashful has a John Wayne type of voice.
