This is a simple tale of a child who's evening is changed when a Tiger decides to visit for Tea. Based on the time honoured and beautifully charming book by the late Judith Kerr, the animation is delightful in its faithfulness to the original book as drawn by the author. It is beautiful and heart warming in its simplicity. A must watch for families and anyone that grew up knowing the story of Tiger.
I just finished watching this short film on Channel 4 and despite not knowing much about the book, I loved this short film, it was charming, beautifully animated, along with a catchy song and great voice acting as well!, the story is simple, a Tiger comes to tea and eats a lot of the food at Sophie's house, which is both funny and can make you hungry also!.
The characters have this simple yet delightful look to them especially the tiger who looks amazing, his movements are smooth and the backgrounds and the way the camera moves is imagine and captivating.
I love the voice acting with some big names like David Walliams, Benedict Cumberbatch and Tamsin Greg, they both fit very well into their roles and I can easily see why!.
The music is catchy, full of personality and beautiful to listen to!.
So overall?, the Tiger Who Came to Tea is a simple, charming, colourful, catchy and amazing short film based on the book, this is a must watch for the whole family and a nice film for the children to watch!.
I will easily give the Tiger Who Came to Tea a 10/10!.

Beautiful animation, great voice acting and true to the original source material
What a wonderful animation of a family favourite loved by each generation.
The somewhat bizarre reviews on here that give low scores seem to overlook this is a faithful bringing to life of the original story written by the author and a production I'm sure she would have been pleased with.
A new family favourite and Christmas tradition

It is a very sweet animation of the tiger and the generous host. It is great for children and adults!

- TriviaDespite the smallish fee on offer, Robbie Williams was only too happy to co-write and sing the song featured as he was a huge fan of Raymond Briggs 'The Snowman' animated short film of the mid 1980s as a child and wanted to be part of something equally magical that children would still be watching at Christmas decades later. And despite being a major Hollywood film and television star, Benedict Cumberbatch's involvement was also because of his fond childhood memories of The Snowman.
