      In the village shop ,the counter would have been at the front, not the back, and there would be no self-service.

    Mauled by a... JK you'll die of boredom first.
    Scant few scenes of wildlife interacting with humans interwoven with old timey British melodrama. If your kids don't have an iPad maybe they'll enjoy. Pretty boring.
