After accompanying them to live in the small, quiet town of Chuffington, Pudsey discovers what he was missing from his supposedly-perfect life, as well as an evil scheme by landlord Mr. Thorne (Sessions) that could put the family and the town in danger…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

After winning the nation’s heart by winning the 2012 edition of Britain’s Got Talent, canine Pudsey is attempting to extend his charm onto the big screen which, if you’re an obsessive dog-lover, should spell good news for audiences wanting uplifting and light-hearted stories.
