Love this TV series, so glad they turned it into audio! I can picture what's happening in my head and still have a good laugh. The Cleese intros are quite interesting too, learned a lot about the making and behind the scenes of the series and that episodes have a message for society. Manuel is also perfect for narration. Have listened over and over and overt and they're still great!

The magical storytelling and unforgettable characters in Bev Doyle and Richard Kurti's audio adaptation of this children's classic have been brought to life by many well-known voices from film, TV, radio and comedy.

storyline different to the book

I love the original story of the jungle book as written by Rudyard Kipling. This, whilst being performed well, varies a lot from the original storyline. Disappointed. If you like the original, don't do it. If you don't know the book, it's worth a listen.
