A very cheap scam. Simply new episodes, possibly only unbroadcast ones from the remainder ramp, sold as a cinema event. Simply strung together, that would almost be fraud! No, don't worry. Real-life sequences were filmed for £5 and inserted as a link. Some of these are intended to encourage people to join in, dance and sing along. Of course, this doesn't work at all, at least not without further help. Another £5 would have been needed to put someone from the cinema staff there, the horrendous ticket prices would certainly have covered that. The children in the interludes are of course precisely timed in terms of ethnic origin, almost mathematically calculated. Enough said, the children enjoyed it, the main thing, even if it felt far too long for their age group.

A good intro to the cinema

I found it a bit of an oddly strung together hour or so, with lots of episodes broken up with scenes of real kids and animation combined - but then it wasn't really aimed at me, and the kids at the cinema all seemed to enjoy it, and stay engaged to the end (no mean feat at that age).
Is it money for old rope? Maybe. Did it feel at one point like an advert for the cinema? Yes. But it served up over an hour of what the kids liked, a new experience, and an hour for me sitting down eating popcorn, for a fiver a head, and I don't think that a slickly produced movie with a full length storyline would have achieved the same.
