spookyeviloneI have finally gotten my grubby intardnetzwebz hands on the entire Dot and the Kangaroo series, and the 1984 BBC miniseries for 'The Box of Delights'.
There were certain things that were watched, growing up, right around the Holiday Season. These would be part of that package, and the others I already have. These have been impossible to get in the States because Dot was never released here at all and Box of Delights was only released as a crappy, pared down 1986 re-cut of the 1984 miniseries. Slowly recapturing my childhood, one small torrent at a time. The scene on the train, when the wolves are running, and the Evildoers have wolf and weasel heads freaks me out to this day.
I somehow don't own the books 'The Midnight Folk' and 'The Box of Delights'. Hm. May have to fix that soon. First edition copies shouldn't be that hard to find, right?
I am happier than a pretzel twig in cheez whiz right now. Eee! Now to get my hands on copies of the BBC's version of Chronicles of Narnia - which I can probably buy a US box set of - and the animated Chronicles of Narnia, which will be harder.
