(Please note - I will not be reviewing Special Features as have not yet had the chance to watch these)
I originally went to see Hot Fuzz at the cinema with The Boyfriend ? purely because the ?chick flick? I had wanted to see was sold out and The Boyfriend was practically wetting himself with excitement at the thought of seeing this film so I gave in ? and I loved it! I know I?ve thoroughly enjoyed a film when I?ve come out of the cinema and spent ages talking about it with whoever I?ve gone to see it with and saying ?the so and so bit was great wasn?t it? and ?what about when he said?.? Which is exactly what happened with Hot Fuzz.

The Fimbles are Fimbo, Florrie and Baby Pom, who all live in a lovely, colourful place called Fimble Valley. The Fimbles are cuddly hippo like creatures each with lovely colourful ?skins?. Other characters in this programme include a blue tree frog called Rockit and a mole called Roly Mo, a pink bird called Bessie and her chick Ribble. Most of the other characters are essentially large puppets except the chick who is just a great ball of fluff with eyes stuck on it, unmoving in the main ...
