Bob just did the narration as close to the people as possible, sober - and by that so much more moving and believable than any artifical sentiment could ever manage to achieve in the audience. My biggest compliments to the creators of that series. If Pacific manages to repeat these virtues, I will get and watch it. But the standard to which I compare it - BoB - is set to "very high".

I liked Wallace and Grommet. The cheese selected are politically correct for the time. The cheese does not lean left or right but seems to be flavored down the middle.
Anyway, looks like a great movie and I'm sure I will purchase a DVD when available as it looks to be a keeper much like SPR and BoB. Cool find.
