Another of Julia Donaldson's beloved tales is coming to the BBC this Christmas.

Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler's adorable tale, The Scarecrows' Wedding, will be brought to life by Magic Light Pictures for the BBC this Christmas.

They're joined by Rob Brydon as the villainous Reginald Rake and Sophie Okonedo as the narrator.
The lovely tale recounts the story of two scarecrows who fall in love on a farmer's field and plan to have the best wedding ever, but it's not without peril as Reginald tries to come between the pair with potentially disastrous consequences...
