The Wind In The Willows (1983) / Det Suser I Sivet (UK-import)
Mark Hall and Chris Taylor co-direct this animated version of Kenneth Grahame's much-loved children's tale. Badger (voice of Michael Hordern), Rat (Ian Carmichael) and Mole (Richard Pearson) are the woodland and river-dwelling creatures who enjoy a simple, settled existence in the English countryside. However, their brash and egotistical friend, Toad (David Jason), is renowned for his passing fads and expensive but short-lived enthusiasms. When Toad develops a passion for motor cars, his resultant debts force him to sell his ancestral home, Toad Hall, to the cunning and conniving weasels.
