Big family fun with The Big Knights - Saturday 16th April 2016
This Saturday (April 16) the Bramall opens its doors to children of all ages to take part in free workshops and watch a special screening of the remastered popular BBC animated series, The Big Knights. From the creators behind Peppa Pig, The Big Knights is a cartoon set in the far off land of Borovia, where dragons are fierce, witches are wicked and scientists are insane. Perfect family entertainment, The Big Knights is the funny tale of two oversized brothers, Sir Boris (David Rintoul) and Sir Morris (Brian Blessed). Blundering but well-meaning, Big Knights crash though a world of yore, accompanied by their pets, Sir Horace the dog and Sir Doris the hamster, keeping young audiences thoroughly entertained.
