Roald Dahl’s classic film THE BFG is to be released on DVD and Blu-ray for the first time, on 10th September.
The film, featuring the voice of David Jason, has been digitally restored to celebrate 30 years of the classic tale, about the little heroine Sophie and her friendship with the friendly vegetarian giant.
These recipes have been created with the childish spirit of Roald Dahl in mind, as they are fun, colourful, and guaranteed to cause merriment.
