The Famous Five (1978–1979)
10/10
The magic of the books just as magical on the screen.

I love this adaptation. The characters stay true to the books, but modernise them for a 1970s time. I love Anne's characterisation in this adaptation. She is so strong and fearless.

The plots change slightly to work with the 1970s theme, but still stay true to the original books.

All the best parts are carried into the series including the spontaneous camping adventures, secret tunnels and plenty of good hearted mystery.

Even as an adult I still regularly rewatch the series. Even though I know them by heart I still sit on the edge of my seat, anticipating what will happen next. I highly recommend this series for everyone.
