You have to watch this, I promise you'll have no regrets afterwards. It appears every Christmas and I love it, it's honestly one of my favourite festive watches. I know it's a kids' mini series but let me explain.
It's hard to put what's so brilliant about it into words but here goes. The animation for the series is fantastic but what really makes it is the stellar writing. It's so dark for a kids' series but so entertaining, and in only an hour contains so much character development, story arc and pay offs of promises and storylines. Plus, everything fits together so well by the end. The reveal of the story and the main character's aims throughout makes for some really shocking moments. I'm sticking to my guns and saying that this is better than 95% of most modern cinema & TV. Plus, a masterful performance by Dominic West as the Big Bad Wolf. He's so mysterious and sinister, but playful and interesting and it makes for a captivating character.
Put it this way, if you don't watch it, you're making a big mistake...
