Airport

Airport

Quietly tucked away in a car-collection garage, Brum is only conspicuous by his size. When the owner turns his back at the start of the day, however, Brum blazes into action, ready to fight crime and do good deeds in the "big town." TV has tried lots of ideas with cars that think for themselves, but never managed to convey the charm that this British series offers. Whether it's thwarting the escape of some naughty bank robbers, or saving a newlywed bride who inadvertently steps on a runaway skateboard, the little car with the big heart is always the perfect gentleman. Each episode sets up a crime to solve or dilemma to resolve, and by way of handy ramps and elevators, Brum is cheerily applauded and waved at by the town's residents. Every so often there's an outburst of song that will unite good guys and bad guys alike, and then there's always the sing-along at the end to look forward to. Warning to parents: expect a look of abject disappointment on the face of the child who discovers her toy cars won't do any of the tricks on TV. --Paul Tonks
