Synopsis
The folk tale is embellished with fresh touches as the legend of the Sword in the Stone is reflected in Jack's methods, the Dame has a tremendous fight with the Giant's evil henchman and the original Vegetable Fairy displays her usual Power for Good (she is frequently overly optimistic and bungles her efforts).
The climatic contest between Jack and the Giant is described in detail and special interpolations include an updated version of a famous Grimaldi comedy "baby bathing' scene
