They're making a TV adaptation, starring Dustin Hoffman and Judi Dench.
I wonder where they'll get all the tortoises from!

This depends on how you see this, its great for kids. But not tortoises, there will be a rise in demand for tortoises, then after the fad has gone, more will be put up for rehoming:0(
A bit like the ninja turtles.

Can't wait to see the film though. x

I agree with Sandy, and I don't like the pic of Mr Hoffman walking out of a pet shop with boxes of torts. What's going to happen to them
