Ideal when you feel… Bored Stressed Happy

The creators of Wallace & Gromit bring you an exciting and original story about a group of chickens determined to fly the coop-even if they can’t fly! It’s hardly poultry in motion when Rocky attempts to teach Ginger and her feathered friends to fly…but, with teamwork, determination and a little bit o’ cluck, the fearless flock plots one last attempt in a spectacular bid for freedom.
