Basil the Great Mouse Detective is a Disney animation film set on

The cobblestoned streets of the turn of the century london

In the inner clockwards of a rather towering Big Ben.

Basil is a nutty Detective and an even kooky scientist, a slightly smaller version, no a lot smaller! Let's not kid ourselves of the once famous Detective Mr Sherlock Holmes.

His newest investigation, a kidnapped toy maker! What use would one of those be? Well you will have to watch it and find out!

So with the help of little miss olivia and his new sidekick/partner in crime Dr Dawson they set out to solve it, catch the evil Professor Ratigan and make it back for tea. But can they do it before someone RINGS THAT BELL?

It’s a brilliant musical adventure with lovable characters and bright scenes i recommend this for age 8+
