    This is a competent adaptation of the children’s story about two scarecrows who fall in love and want to get married. They assemble a wish list of things for their big day, and with just pink flowers needed, “Harry” sets off to find some. His journey turns out to be quite an epic one, and meantime “Betty” finds herself attracting the unwanted attention of the spiv “Reginald”. Can “Harry” get back in time to save her from his machinations and tie the knot? There is something very natural about the characterisations here, with all three scarecrows and even the farmer and his tractor having details to their shapes, clothing and faces that are really quite engaging as the two have their own adventures. Along the way, nature gets a look in with bees, frogs, birds and dogs all adding a bit of richness to a simple story that is short, but quite sweet.

One spring, Mole decides that he can ignore the spring cleaning for a little longer, and begins a series of adventures with his new friend Rat. They go for a picnic on the riverbank, on a caravan expedition with Toad, until Toad switches allegiance to his new car and his reckless driving makes Mole and Rat search out Badger for help in curbing Toad's profligate habits. But Toad gets away from them and gets a 20-year sentence from the magistrate for theft, reckless driving, and Gross Impertinence. While Toad works his wiles on the jailer's daughter and escapes jail dressed as a washer woman, Badger tries to guard Toad Hall from the machinations of the Weasels and is badly beaten.
