What

A TV series based upon Gilliam's brilliant Time Bandits, which saw an English youngster discover his wardrobe contained a time hole, through which six dwarves emerge and take him on a series of adventures through history. It's a wonderfully imaginative film, and it's in good hands for the TV series, with Waititi directing and co-writing the pilot episode.
