A review of ITV's 1989-1991 TV series Grim Tales (yes, with one M) in which the late great Rik Mayall of 'The Young Ones' 'Bottom' and 'Drop Dead Fred' narrated Brothers Grimm (yes, with two M's) Fairytales with occasional surreal accompanying animation and a sentient ostrich legged chair. The episodes were often written by Anthony Horowitz.
