The Magic Roundabout

Synopsis

'The Magic Roundabout' lies in ruins; the evil ice sorcerer Zeebadee is on the loose and the fate of the enchanted land hangs in the balance. As a frosty mist sweeps the earth, four unlikely heroes Brian, Ermintrude, Dylan and Dougal step forward to challenge the chill. They must recover three magical diamonds to reverse the onset of winter and return Zeebadee to his prison beneath the ground. Easy, you may say - If you're not a snail, a cow, a rabbit or a dog.

Across the furnaces of a fiery volcano, through the hidden dangers of a jungle temple, over the snow-capped mountains of the icy wilderness, our sub-zero heroes must voyage and survive. The destiny of the world rests on their shoulders. Only through teamwork, friendship and exceptional bravery will they deliver the enchanted land from a frozen fate.
