Jacob Two Two Meets the Hooded Fang
Synopsis
The quest goes horribly wrong when Jacob loses his nerve and runs off - straight into a ten-pound hanging salami.
He wakes up to find himself in court charged with the terrible crime of insulting a grown up. The Singing Judge, Rough Justice, sentences Jacob to Slimer's Island Children's Prison, presided over by none other than the gruesome Hooded Fang! But help is on its way in the form of the heroic Child Power Masters.
Escorted by the Fang's henchman, Miss Fowl and Mr Fish, Jacob arrives at the fog-bound, crocodile infested prison guarded by the Slimers where he meets the fearsome Hooded Fang. When the Child Power Masters fail to show on time (as usual) Jacob Two Two hatches a cunning plan and decides to take on the Hooded Fang himself!
Will he out-wit Fish and Fowl and the evil Slimers or will it be the Child Power Masters who save the day? All will be revealed in George Bloomfield's hilarious rendition of Mordecai Richler's classic childrens adventure, Jacob Two Two Meets the Hooded Fang.

After five years away from Liverpool, Clara Reynolds has finally managed to distance herself from her troubled past and the criminal family she left behind. But when her notorious father, Gerry, summons her home with the news that he is dying, Clara reluctantly returns to a world she thought she had escaped. Reunited with her volatile younger sister Danika and a colourful collection of criminals, friends and old acquaintances, Clara finds herself surrounded by family rivalries, dangerous schemes and increasingly chaotic situations. Determined not to be dragged back into the family business, she soon discovers that escaping the Reynolds family is considerably easier said than done. Set in Liverpool, a darkly comic British crime film about family, loyalty, bad decisions and the consequences of trying to leave your past behind.
