![]() ![]() ![]() You won't need to have read the story or be familiar with it to love this, for me this was a standout of festive period television this year and if it didn't have high viewing figures it would be a shame as it is far better than a good deal of programmes this year that were hyped more and aired at times people are possibly more likely to be watching their televisions. It is very lovingly adapted here, true in detail and spirit to the source material with all its impact and it is a delight on its own terms. 'The Snail and the Whale' is a lovely story with very lovable characters and an adorable relationship between the two titular characters. They are perfect for the whole family, kids and adults alike, when that is done well animated and not it is a winner or at least close to it. It is not hard to see why they are popular stories and how they lend themselves beautifully to animation first aired in the Christmas break. Really like to love all the animated festive adaptations of Julia Donaldson's books. ![]()
