Wrong choice of format

DANNY THE DRAGON is something very different and yet familiar for the Children's Film Foundation brand. The content, which involves a gang of kids befriending a dragon (who's actually an alien from outer space) and protecting him from nefarious adults, will be immediately recognisable to anyone who's watched any other fantasy-themed CFF productions from the 1950s through to the 1970s. The difference here is the format - instead of a single film, this is comprised of ten 20-minute episodes. The problem is that this stretches the thin material to breaking point, and watching the adults getting outwitted over and over again does become repetitive in the end. Still, the cast is typically good, including Sally Thomsett as one of the kids and Kenneth Connor as the voice of Danny.
