5/5 Beautiful BBC production of Arthur Ransomes book of the same name
by Kiwi (Mississauga, Ontario Canada)
Filmed by the BBC back in the 1980s, this is a beautifully done movie (originally produced as a six part TV series but you wouldnt know that from the DVD production) of Arthur Ransomes book of the same name. It stays faithful to the plot, the actors suit the parts perfectly, the period (1930s Norfolk Broads in England) is reproduced lovingly. Nothing in the movie for any parent to disapprove of. All in all its a great movie for kids and for adults who, like me, read and enjoy Arthur Ransomes Swallows and Amazons series.

There were two of these series made, the other is Coot Club, the first of Arthur Ransomes two books set in the Norfolk Broads.

Swallows and Amazons: The Big Six Summary Coot Club and its companion story, The Big Six, are based on the celebrated Swallows & Amazons series of childrens' books written by Arthur Ransome. For anyone who loves sailing and adventure, the Arthur Ransome classics stand alone. Set in the '30s, both stories take place on the lakes and waterways of England, and feature the same cast of lively characters, led by six children, who become firm friends, sharing a love of wildlife and all things nautical. The fun and adventure of a life afloat sparkle off the screen. These movies were produced on location in England by the BBC.

Big Six

Joe, Bill and Pete are members of the "Coot Club" which aims to protect wildlife. They spend most of their time on the river in their little boat, the "Death and Glory." Trouble starts when they are blamed for setting boats free from their moorings. Tom Dudgeon, the doctor's son, and Dick and Dot, children who are staying with Mrs. Barrable, all become detectives and search for clues to lead them to the real culprit.
