Revolting Rhymes

Media adaptations

An original video animation (OVA) was also released by Abbey Home Entertainment in the 1990s as part of their Tempo Video range, featuring all 6 tales told using Scales and West's audio book recordings against animations rendered in the style of Quentin Blake's illustrations. Re-releases from 1996 (by PolyGram, later Universal) had their narrations re-dubbed by Dawn French and Martin Clunes in the respective stories.

The poem "Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf" was adapted into the 1996 television film Little Red Riding Hood for BBC One.

The book was adapted into a 2016 two-part computer-animated television film for BBC One.[6] It was nominated at the 90th Academy Awards for Best Animated Short.
