Shrek The Halls (DVD)

Shrek the halls is a short film which was broadcast on Christmas Eve on bbc1 in 2007, it is a funny festive insight into the Shrek residents at Christmas time. As a family who loves Christmas films, we love this short film, we just wish it was a full length film as it is onlt on for 21mins.
