Description
’Chitty Chitty Bang Bang’, from the book by Bond creator Ian Fleming and adapted for the screen by
Roald Dahl, is the wonderful family film starring
Dick Van Dyke as Caractacus Potts, an eccentric inventor who designs an extraordinary car that not only drives but flies and floats.

With a fantastic cast including
