“Edda” lives and works on her father’s struggling fairground but has dreams of driving a Grand Prix car, however unlikely that may be. Meantime, with the challenge for the world title about to take place, the charismatic “Ed” is poised to win his fifth consecutive championship and cement his place in the history books. Determined to sneak a look at his car, “Edda” gets into his garage and decides to take it for a spin. He catches her but not before she has got behind the wheel and hit the streets of Paris - quite literally! With him now sporting a dislocated arm, “Edda” suggests that she don his helmet and pretend to be him for the forthcoming races. It’s a risky wheeze, but it might just work - except, well there appears to be something nefarious afoot and when things begin to go slip, sliding away amidst a sea of green gunge it looks like “Edda” has her work cut out to thwart someone’s devious plans and to keep “Ed” convinced that it isn’t actually her who is threatening his chances. It’s quite a basic, but still a quickly paced and enjoyable animation with loads of action very much in the “Wacky Races” vein with plenty of super-stunts, a little bit of menace and even a soupçon of romance as these red leather critters hurl themselves around the streets where there’s even some room for action for a big red London bus. It’s got the usual tones of inter-reliance and team spirit to keep it whizzing along and I quite enjoyed it.
