A double bill of animated tales based around the character created by Hans Christian Andersen. In 'The Snow Queen', when the Snow Queen's huge mirror smashes, a part of it enters Tom's body, and the Snow Queen must have it back to complete her plan of global dominance. Whilst in 'The Snow Queen's Revenge', the now furious Queen kidnaps Dimly and sentences him to death. It is up to Ellie and Peeps to save him and vanquish the wicked Queen.

not what I expected
they have changed the names of the children and yes I supposed it was based on the story but it was not the correct story

In view of the other comment for this, I thought I'd give a more balanced view. Sure, the animation isn't the best, the voice actors aren't of the same calibre of last time and the story isn't as strong but, combined with the Snow Queen (the prequal to this featuring David Jason, Helen Mirren, etc.) this is a good buy for kids.I was a kid when the Snow Queen and Snow Queen's Revenge were bought for me on VHS (before the DVD days, obviously). As an 8 year old, this had a great, adventurous story. Ellie and Peeps meet with various people on the road to rescue Tom in the Snow Queen and Dimly in the Snow Queen's Revenge. These are all different, interesting characters.Whilst the second installment is undoubtedly weaker than the original, they're both worth getting together if you have kids aged between 6 and 10. It's perfect for family, Christmas watching.PLUS POINTS-Good storyline-Well known voice actors-Interesting characters-Family viewingMINUS POINTS-Not as good as the original-Poor animation at points

Rubbish
I watched this today with my kids and it was absolutely rubbish. Can't believe people like Hugh Laurie and Alison Steadman put their voices to such nonsense. Poor animation, terrible songs everything about it is hideous, don't go near this appalling column of nastiness.
