The Midnight Gang

Tom is stuck in a boarding school while his parents are in the Middle East. He is sent to an odd hospital after getting knocked out in a cricket game. He is recovering in a room with kids from different backgrounds while suffering the wimps of a weird medical staff. The kids call themselves The Midnight Gang.

This is a British TV movie based on a children's book. It's definitely inspired by Roald Dahl material. It's dark. It's weird. It doesn't have quite as much charm as Dahl. Nevertheless, it has enough to be interesting. The balloons are fun. This will do for a random rainy weekend afternoon.
