The 10th kingdom is made by Hallmark in 1999; and was first shown a number of years ago as a series on sky one. When I watched it; it was shown on a Sunday evening, seven episodes each lasting an hour.
It is repeated every once in a while; but the series can now be bought on DVD and video.

Many years ago I watched the 10th Kingdom series; I was dazzled by its brilliance and have recently purchased it on DVD; on a second viewing my respect for this series is now greater than before.

Advantages: Beautiful scenery, quirky and interesting storyline Disadvantages: Maybe a little childish for older audiences
I have read the book by Kathryn Wesley (available from amazon), seen the TV series and bought the DVD (also available from amazon).
First, let's look at the TV series/DVD. The introduction to 10th Kingdom is beautiful, a masterpiece of CGI. Modern New York is transformed into castles and forests before your eyes, accompanied by a powerful song.
The soundtrack throughout the film is fitting and beautiful and can be purchased from amazon. There is ... ...New York' to the beautiful harp music of 'Kissing Town'.
The storyline (excuse spoliers) is about a girl named Virginia and her father travelling to another world - where all the fairytales you heard when you were young are real. There's Snow White, Cinderella and many more.
One problem - the kingdoms are being overtaken by the evil troll king and the wicked step-mother - the very one that poisoned Snow White.
The storyline follows Virginia through ...

Advantages: Quality Acting, sound and production Disadvantages:
The Tenth Kingdom is a multi million dollar mini series recently shown on Sky One now available on video.

The storyline features many twists and turns to ...

Advantages: Makes you smile and feel all warm and fuzzy! Disadvantages: You don't want to come back to the real world!
...Enter a world where all the fairy tales you heard as a child are fact. A story of 3 people and a dog's journey literally across fairy-europe in a land where cinderella exists, and everything isn't quite what it seems. A modern-day Lord of the Rings, it is wonderful. Follow them through Red Riding Hood Forest, Beanstalk Town and visit Snow White's Memorial Prison. Sadly this series hasd now finished on SKy One, but fret not - it is available to buy ...

We received an email from Macdonald to say they had special offers on certain hotels so we looked into them further. We chose this one as it had a wide range of facilities and was only an hour away from where we live so was a nice weekend break.
