It All Started With an Egg

Angus MacMorrow is a young boy living on the coast of Scotland during the Second World War. Angus's father is away in battle, so Angus lives with his mother (Emily Watson) and his older sister, Kirstie. Angus' life takes a bizarre turn one day when he discovers a strange egg on the beach. What kind of creature could be growing inside of it?

What's That in the Shed?

Angus keeps the egg in a potting shed and it soon hatches into a slithery creature that grows into a huge teenaged sea monster that is more than a little difficult to contain. As if that isn't enough of a headache for poor Angus, a nasty army captain has recently taken over the house to use as a military base! What will go wrong next? You'll have to watch The Water Horse to find out!
