First shown in 1988 as the BBC's annual Christmas children's series, THE LION, THE WITCH AND THE WARDROBE is a breathtaking adaptation of the second novel in CS Lewis' CHRONICLES OF NARNIA. Siblings Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy are evacuated and find themselves in a huge country mansion, replete with myriad mysterious rooms. In one such room stands an old wardrobe, through which the youngest two stumble, and discover a world where it is forever winter and never Christmas. The people (more specifically, talking, brolley-carrying fauns) of Narnia are all affected by the spell of the evil White Witch, and it seems that their only hope is the great lion, Aslan, who can warm even the coldest heart.

The reindeer meant to power Tilda Swinton's White Witch across the forests of Narnia have been deported. While the land of talking beasts and magical creatures did not manage to stop her for a century, it seems the New Zealand government proved more effective. The latest adaptation of CS Lewis' classic novel "The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe" is being filmed in Middle Earth (New Zealand) and the government confiscated the reindeer.
