This afternoon we watched a film about a penniless immigrant of no discernible skills who enters London illegally from South America, and who inveigles himself into the home of the charmingly-eccentric, upper-middle-class Brown family.

Once ensconced, the Bear (for it is he) proceeds to trash the place.

Fortunately, an evil (but beautiful and swishily-attired) taxidermist known as Nicole Kidman is on hand to dart the bear and whisk him off to the Natural History Museum to be
stuffed.

Sadly, this public-spirited act is subverted by the hopelessly-liberal Brown family, and finally love conquers all, including the all-important public policy issues.
The kids present
laughed out loud and the adults present seemed to
much enjoy it too. Little ones (and UKIP members) might find some of the scenes a bit scary.
