I found a copy of the chronicles of narnia the old bbc series in a charity shop and have been watching it one episode a week with the youngest on a Sunday evening like I did back in the day.
DS is not a fan of t.v shows and films and often finds they cause him anxiety but this I think due to episode length and mild content worked for him. Now we've finished the whole set I am trying to find reccomendations of similar things we could watch.
I remember the borrowers but does anyone have any other reccomendations?

The Wolves of Willoughby Chase was a film version in 1989 with Steohanie Beacham. It was on TV over Christmas on one of the more obscure channels. I think you can watch it on YouTube.

Yes I knew it was a film!
I used to love that film!

I wish I'd known it was on over Christmas I would have watched it ☹️

And absolutely think that 80s/90s scary is less scary than films they release nowadays for kids

Apart from Return to Oz!!

My child doesn't find that scary in the slightest
And watching it with her now I can see why she doesn't

Where's I think I had a different view when I watched it back in the day...!

The Borrowers
The Prince and the Pauper (there was a serialised version of this circa 1992 I think)
The Queen's Nose
The Amazing Mr Blunden

Was there an adaptation of The Wolves of Willoughby Chase or am I making that up?

Yes, The Wolves of Willoughby Chase is available on YouTube.
