=====================
Jack knocks on the door of the castle. It is answered by an enormous woman - a giant!

Jack scuttles between the giant's legs and goes into the castle before she's even spotted him.  He explores the castle... but suddenly the giant discovers Jack and clasps him in her hand.

The giant woman makes it clear she wishes Jack no harm. But then her husband returns - shouting "Fee-fi-fo-fum" - and Jack hides. The giant thinks he can smell a boy somewhere.

This clip is from the BBC series Jack and the Beanstalk. The story of Jack and the Giant Beanstalk is told in 14 short animations.  They are accompanied by a set of videos for teaching the seven songs.
