Weak and lazy plot line which wasted the talents of the strong cast. There was no point to the girl's storyline at all and sentimental mush was over used as a filler. I wanted to know about the origins of the magical beings in the Factory not some random people in a Oliver Twist workhouse. It was like a dreadful pantomime which fell flat as a pancake neither on child or adult humour level. Same old bad guys v good guys story. Yawn.
