    I haven't seen any clips or owt but isn't it CGI? I personally don't think it'd have the same effect as a 10 minute TV show or as cutout and puppet animation :)

    I saw it, and even if it had obvious differences to the old tv series (mainly the fact of its shiny new computer imaged self) it's still got the old Magic Roundabout gleam.

    It's comedy is much like that of its predacessor, subtle drug refrences included. The story is, obviously, a bit wider than that of the 5 minute old show ones, but still bizare enough to fit the Magic Roundabout.
    Bill Nighy is superbly cast as Dylan, I don't think they would have found a better actor to voice him. Dougal, on the other hand, is very different from his old self, they've sweetened him up....I blame Robbie Williams.
    Oh well, I got my Dylan joy, and will be able to grab all the Dylan merchandise from it. Hazah for tha narcoleptic hippie rabbit.

    LOL totally agree about Dylan :)


    Hmm it was okay, a bit childish and fast paced though.
