Okay guys, I have a great idea. A Scream Street live-action adaptation written and directed by Edgar Wright. Sir Otto will, of course, be portrayed by Nick Frost.

I wonder if you'd ever be willing to do another CBBC show? Young Dracula is interesting in that it went the opposite way to this one - the original book was fairly light-hearted, but the show went *dark*, by kids' show standards.

I never thought I'd see a CBBC show get a reviewers attention, let alone Scream Street. I've only seen clips but as an animator it caught my eye. The BBC rarely if ever invests in animation outside of Aardman and Cbeebies shows. I'd say it actually looks good for a tv series with the BBC's kid show budget. Though I do wish they'd go back to serialized storytelling. For the most part I think kids tv shows have matured a lot since my time, but british shows seem to have reversed. Demon Headmaster, the Queen's Nose, Shoebox Zoo? Those where some engaging kids tv.

Random question, do you find shonky stop motion more disconcerting than high quality, smooth stop motion animation?
Hey the dom have you ever read animorphs?

If you think this is scary, there's also Phantom Investigators, which is a mix of stop motion paper cutouts, puppetry/animatronics, and live action!
