Absolute woeful adaption of the original books. The company that owns the copyright to the 'Famous Five' should be sued. Having read the original books and then watched all the episodes of the 1978 series, this was so far flung from the original storyline, that the only thing original was the name of the five main characters . To top it off, the acting was dreadful! Did the directors even read the original books?? The subject matter was poor., ridiculous 'curse' element with clips of the bombing of Hiroshima etc . Surely the writers could have added more depth to the original storyline instead of this rubbish.
