Zog and Gadabout are back, and this time they're flying doctors on a mission. Princess Pearl has been locked up in her uncle's castle, so Zog and Gadabout have to work out how to get her out. Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler's sequel keeps the warmth and silliness of the first film, with Lenny Henry narrating, Hugh Skinner as Zog, Patsy Ferran as Pearl and Daniel Ings as Sir Gadabout, plus Rob Brydon as the King. Plenty of daft dragon antics for the little ones, and it's short enough that Nan won't have nodded off before the end.
