I watched this with my daughters and we loved it. It’s a spin-off of Cinderella, but don’t let that make you think you know the plot. Ella under a spell of obedience, but things get complicated when she falls in love with Prince Char. It’s also not quite the fairy godmother you’d expect. This is a brilliant adaptation of a fairy tale, brought up to date with modern humour and I would definitely recommend this to all girls.
