The Famous Five are back. Thirty years after the Comic Strip arrived on our screens with their famous Enid Blyton spoof - Five Go Mad in Dorset. These famous children's characters have again been brought back from the past to confront today's modern world. This time they are made to account for their racist and sexist views. But they seem blissfully unrepentant as they gather for a reunion on Dick's birthday in leafy Dorset - still a magical land of rolling hills, woods, ruined castles, and of course dodgy villains in big black cars.
Cherps is a fresh and charming romantic comedy that draws equally on traditions of British story telling and New York independent filmmaking. Reggie is a thirtysomething second-generation black British west London geezer. He likes to live on the fly; ducking and diving, and avoiding work whenever possible. He also likes to cherps women. In black British street slang, 'to cherps' is to chat up or flirt with women. Simple.
