That has a distinctly post-wartime feel to it as a group of kids convince their dad to buy them a cow. They promise to take care of it, and they do such a good job that they are soon ready to enter it to into their local livestock show. Thing is, the farmer who sold them the cow "Kincaid" (Alastair Hunter) has his own eyes on that particular prize, and the children soon find that keeping hold of "Calamity" might prove harder than they imagined. This is quite an enjoyable Children's Film Foundation production that allows the children and the story to meander along for an hour with the odd comical moment and not a jot of jeopardy. The children - led by familiar face John Moulder-Brown as "Rob" - deliver an ensemble effort amiably enough and the scenarios allow some scope for a bit of farmyard humour that raises a few smiles. Remember it was made for children and you might still get some nostalgic joy from it's simplicity.

Otis is a mischievous, carefree Holstein cow who lives on a farm where, unbeknownst to humans, the animals are anthropomorphic. He prefers having fun with his best friends: Pip the mouse, Freddy the ferret, Peck the rooster, and Pig the pig - rather than following strict rules and accepting responsibility. This annoys his stern adoptive father Ben, the leader of the farm's community. One evening, Otis convinces Ben to cover his night watch so he can attend a massive party in the barn and impress Daisy, a pregnant cow who recently arrived at the farm with her best friend Bessy as a newcomer. As the animals party, Dag the coyote and his pack attempt to raid the chicken coop. Ben fends them off alone but is fatally wounded and killed. Otis must now learn the value of responsibility when he becomes the leader of his farm home's community.
