The Snow Spider (1988) – Complete Series on DVD

Summary

The Snow Spider was written by the great author Jenny Nimmo and published in book form in 1986. It was an instant hit and became winner of the Smarties Grand Prix. Television soon realised what a magical and mystical book had been written and swiftly responded by turning it into a children's fantasy drama. I believe it was first televised in. Julia Jones did a fantastic job adapting the screenplay for television.

The Snow Spider concerns the adventures of a young boy called Gwyn Griffiths, who lives in a remote hill farm in Wales. His life is not easy especially as Gwyn's sister (Bethan) vanished on the mountains some time ago and Gwyn's father blames him for the loss. We are instantly hooked when Sian Phillips enters the farm house and wishes Gwyn a Happy Birthday. She gives him her gifts and then says,

"Time to find out if you are a magician, Gwydion Gwyn"

"Time to remember your ancestors,"

"Math, Lord of Gwynedd, Gwydion and Gilfaethwy"

Coupled with the haunting theme music, so begins a truly wonderful adventure series for children and adults of all ages.
