HERE'S one to put the wind up the Dan Quayle School of Family Values. Nowhere in Walt Disney's 1941 animated film Dumbo (Pearl 8.30, ORT 64 mins) is there so much as a hint as to the identity of the big-eared baby elephant's father. He's never mentioned, never seen and certainly not around to help Mrs Jumbo through that difficult birth (the stork gets lost, you know).
Let your children watch at peril to their future moral fibre.
EVEN more strange than Dumbo's lack of a dad is Pearl's decision to run another cartoon feature back-to-back, particularly since the later one, The Land Before Time (9.45pm, ORT 69 mins) is only likely to appeal to the vintage of viewer who should be inbed by this time.
ACTRESS of the moment Demi Moore stars in The Seventh Sign (World 9.30pm, ORT 98 mins) as a distraught mother-to-be whose nightmares and premonitions have convinced her the world's having its apocalypse now.
She could hardly miss the signs - seas boiling, villages freezing, the moon glowing red - and a mysterious new neighbour (Jurgen Prochnow) whom she believes is after her unborn child.
Visuals are stylish, the acting convincing, but you'll still be saying ''oh, leave it out'' before movie's end.
