Synopsis

Kermit, Gonzo and the rest of the Muppet gang appear in this fun musical take on the classic Charles Dickens story. Ebenezer Scrooge is a miserly and bitter old man with no thought for anyone but himself. One Christmas Eve he is visited by three ghosts - the spirits of Christmas Past, Christmas Present and Christmas Yet to Come - who each show him the error of his ways. The well-known tale is given a Muppet twist here - with Gonzo even "playing" Charles Dickens!

What our educators say

"We are currently screening The Wizard of Oz, profound film that it is, and the last film Wall-E. It's been rewarding observing the KS1 6 year olds run the gamut of emotions from wonder to sadness to joy. "
