Synopsis

Artful Penny could indeed draw anything she wanted with her magic crayon and it would spring into life. A fantastically useful toy to have. Only her best friend friend Dennis knew her secret so the two had acres of fun winding up adults, nosey-parkers, bullies, bad guys, teachers and ne'er-do-wells with her creations, or solving problems for folk, or sketching their way out of tricky situations. Penny would scribble away, her arm becoming a blurr as she worked and then - hey presto! - her line drawing would leap off the drawing surface as a fully-formed 3D object.

HeadlinesExotic Boring
Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Andrew I remember it being shown on the BBC in the early 90s. The idea of being able to draw things and then make them come to life was something that definitely appealed to me when watching this as a child. It had a great singalong theme tune and Sue Pollard did a great job as the voice of Penny Crayon. Its one of those shows that really takes you back to a period of your childhood it's just a shame we cant time travel back. Penny Crayon was shown around the same time as other classic kids shows like Maid Marian and her merry men and animals of farthing wood, shows that far exceed todays kids shows in quality and storytelling. To use a well worn cliché they don't make them like this anymore.
