The worst Julia Donaldson adaptation. By far!
I've two small boys at home so naturally the Julia Donaldson adaptations have formed an essential part of our television experience for a few years now. I've seen all the JD animations, more times than I care to remember.
This though has only been watched once and a half. My children were bored, my wife was bored and by crikey I was bored.
The animation was as good as always but the story was really, really lazy. It was derivative like most children's stories which is expected and forgivable but it was also really dull. I never care for the characters in the JD stories (they're short stories for kids) this time though I disliked them. I honestly wish Fred had broken his neck in the fall to save me from the last fifteen minutes of this.
