This animated television show was a great favorite of my kids (who are now in their 20s). It combined excellent claymation with first-rate acting, and of course the story was also very satisfying. We watched it on a VHS tape that I recorded off the air.I would love to buy this on DVD, but I'm not going to spend over $100 on it! I wonder if WGBH (the US producer) might have a way of making it available for a new generation of children.
