    So unbelievably adorable.

    This has been shown the past few christmases and is the most adorable little programme.

    I am 14 but still enjoy it so much.

    It is an enjoyable bit of Christmas TV pudding! When you watch it you can imagine the snow falling around you outside and a warm log fire blazing.

    The characters are adorable from the home loving guinea pig, Duke to Archie the rabbit who longs for adventure. You love them all. The pigeons are also great (you'll understand when you watch it)

    This is a great Christmas show for the young and young at heart. I highly recommend this!

    :)

    The Stuff Of Deams

    I am 22 years old but this magical movie will still have me feeling like a nipper who gasps at the thought of Christmas wishes.

    I will imagine myself on some Christmas adventure trying to save the day.

    If you have a chance to watch this film you will be a better person for it. The characters in this film are so enjoyable that my Christmas wish would be to turn into a courageous Ginni pig.

    Enjoy Christmas the way you remembered it as a child with movie that moves you

    10 out 0f 10 for this Christmas Cracker
