Wonderful World of D****y, The

GENERALLY, OUR time period was mercifully D****y-free. Hardly any films made (The Rescuers, Fox and Hound… please!) and only the dread Bank Holiday signifier of D****Y TIME (SARAH GREENE schlepping around Drayton Manor Park and Zoo, introducing clips from Dumbo) and the occasional Bedknobs and Broomsticks clip on SCREEN TEST. But this abomination of a “true-life adventure” dull animal half-hour with condescending narration really took the tedium biscuit. Use of “wonderful” in the title still open for legal prosecution. Shite.

    I beg to differ with the reviewer, The Wonderful World Of Disney was a very successful attempt to transfer Disney’s cartoon characters and some live action stories to television. This was a very popular show at the time and I can remember Disney doing a drama about the American Civil War as well as light hearted cartoons.
