How the Grinch Stole Christmas!

Up on Mount Crumpit lives the Grinch, who cannot stand the noise, the singing or the roast beast down in Whoville, so he decides to steal the lot. Chuck Jones turned Dr Seuss's book into a half hour of wobbly, brilliant cartoon, with Boris Karloff narrating and growling his way through, a loyal dog called Max pulling the sleigh and a song nobody can resist humming. It is short, sharp and a little bit mean, until the ending, which gets the whole family in the feelings every time. Put it on after the pudding and watch the youngest hum along.
