The Borrowers

on CBBC Channel

Back-to-back 30 minute episodes of series two of the drama based on Mary Norton's classic books about the adventures of a family who are 15cm high, starring Ian Holm and Penelope Wilton.

Including the day Pod tells the Hendrearys that he and his family are leaving, and Eggletina shows them a way out through the scullery drain; the soaked Borrowers make camp in Spiller's kettle; and how the Borrowers are imprisoned in an attic and have five days to escape - with this in mind, Arrietty persuades Pod and Homily to build a balloon.
