Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Second Star To the Left is the kind of festive fare that the BBC excels at. The voice actors Hugh Lawrie, Mark Williams and Barbara Windsor are perfectly cast; the characters are appealing; and the whole tale glows with gentle humour and unashamed sentimentality.

It's Christmas Eve and Archie the rabbit, voiced with many a "lumme" and "cripes" by the inimitable Hugh Lawrie, is bored--so bored that he's counting stars. When a present falls from Santa's sleigh as it passes overhead, Archie sees that this is his big chance for adventure: there will be a very disappointed child somewhere if the gift isn't delivered by Christmas morning. So Archie and his friends, Duke the guinea pig (Williams) and Babs the hamster (Windsor), set out to deliver the present to its rightful owner--"three houses past the duckpond, take the second star to the left".

Second Star to the Left is an amiable tale about having the courage to try and being able to make a difference--the perfect way to get into the festive mood. After all, if you can't wallow in a bit of unabashed sentimentality at Christmas, when can you? --Helen Baker

The main feature is followed by a 10-minute extra consisting of interviews with Barbara Windsor and Graham Ralph, the story's creator.

Total running time: 36 minutes approximately.

4.0 out of 5 stars love it, 18 Sep 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Second Star to the Left [DVD] [2001] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
i absolutly love this cartoon. its sweet, enjoyable and re-watchable. a perfect little cartoon about a rabbit, a hamster and a guinie-pig, on a christmas quest to diliver a missing christmas present. it may sound corny, but its one of those rare christmas cartoons which keeps the magic of the season in a new, more interseting light. although its short, there isnt anything you could do to improve or remove parts; everything is just well set. great for animal loving kids, and adults that don't mind watching them too ^_~
