Product reviewsThe Magic Roundabout (DVD, 2005)

I bought this for the archive black and white episodes....

.... therefore I'm not really that interested in anyone's revamp. It is a trendy modern-world mistake and it happens all the time. They tried it with Reggie Perrin (disaster), and Bilko (disaster), Dad's Army (well, guess what?) and mow this. Whatever next? Mind you it does provide evidence - if any were needed -of the dreadful state of British television. Ever since we were forced to have lots more of it - 24/7 and many more channels - the quality has nosedived. Now such a fuss is being made over a blasted silly cookery programme. Am I the only person who couldn't care less what happens to Bake Off? It can Piss Off for all I care. I despair when flicking through the channels now: the menu is impoverished, often vulgar and almost always on the intellectual level of an ant.
However the black and white episodes of MR on DVD2 of this set - there are five episodes including the very first which I do recall seeing when originally broadcast in 1965 - offer a wonderful antidote to today's shortage of imagination, talent and foresight.Read full review...

The Magic Roundabout

Excellent fab great! It takes a lot for me to give top ratings on a DVD but this one is top! The kids love it - I love it - its been watched over & over again! Great to look at! Great actors! Fantastic soundtrack - shame they never released the soundtrack - if anyone knows where you can get one - please tell me I WANT IT! Excellent storyline-not like the original episodes that were a bit boring - this is actually a bit sinister! I rate this among Cinderella, Monsters Inc, & Shrec - excellent idea!Read full review...

I loved this film, i used to watch it when i was young and my son watched it with me a few days ago, i've never known him so quiet!! For me it was the best way to re- live your childhood days, sat waiting for dougal and the gang.
A must see movie for ALL ages.!!!!Read full review...

Good. I enjoyed it

This is a DVD enjoyable by kids or adults alike. Even better when watched by both at the same time. Always something to keep at home should the grandchildren visit or as a change from watching sensationalism on tv.Read full review...
