In Episode 19 of Narnia Fans Cast, Andy Filipovich, Paul Martin, and John Burkitt discuss a quieter but still intriguing week of Narnia news, including producer Mark Johnson’s comments about Prince Caspian, whether the sequel would require a significantly larger budget than The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Georgie Henley’s appearance switching on the Christmas lights in Ilkley, the celebration of C.S. Lewis’ 108th birthday, and the announcement of the fourth finalist in the Ultimate Fan Contest. The episode also features another installment of John Burkitt’s Byron on Wells, continuing the heartfelt storytelling series with a Christmas-themed chapter. In the second half of the show, the hosts review the newly released Extended Edition DVD of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, discuss what the additional scenes contribute to the film, and reflect on whether The Chronicles of Narnia are best experienced as classroom literature or simply enjoyed as timeless stories that inspire readers of all ages.
