the Famous Five one more time

In French, "the Club of the Five", here going camping, having hitched a ride in a freight train box car by the look of it.

As reported in this Telegraph article, Enid Blyton's "Famous Five" books for children are getting television treatment again (the last time was over 1978-1979).  Enid Blyton's books are now most famous for having content that is considered not to be "politically correct", expect that to be eliminated.

For those into adult humor, the satires Five go Mad in Dorset and Five go Mad on Mescalin from the early 1980s are worth seeing.
