102 Dalmatians (2000)

BBC ONE, 1.25PM ★★★

 This sequel to 1996’s 101 Dalmatians sees the return of Glenn Close as the malevolent, fur-crazy dognapper Cruella de Vil. Released from prison, de Vil claims she’s back on the straight and narrow, but it soon emerges that she has plans for her most extravagant fur coat to date. There’s too much hammy acting and cartoonish violence, though the adorable puppies save the day.
