The film concerns a London nanny (played by Julie Andrews) who mysteriously appears at a troubled household to take charge of raising the two young children of a banker and a busy suffragette. The film about a magical nanny combined both live action and animation.

James the Sweep, although he always has a smile on his face, takes that professional challenge very seriously indeed. Even so, despite all the fun dancing and singing, chimney sweeping is a serious business that saves lives from the deadly risks of carbon monoxide poisoning. Sweeps were seen as something mysterious, belonging to another world. It has its origins of course in the Victorian era, when the plight of child sweeps slowly gained public attention. James the Sweep enjoys the romantic myth of chimney sweeping, which extends to other literary forms not just Ol’ Bert created by PL Travers in Mary Poppins. ‘Trip A Little Light Fantastic’ looks set to be the equivalent of ‘Chim Chim Cher-ee’ with Jack and other leeries (streetlamp lighters) doing a dance and song, which will definitely evoke memories of Bert and his fellow sweeps dancing and singing ‘Chim Chim Cher-ee’ in the original movie. Street lamplighter Jack (played by Lin-Manuel Miranda) takes on the role of cheeky chap and romantic companion to Emily Blunt’s Mary Poppins. Alas, Bert won’t be reappearing in Mary Poppins Returns. The public, even where James the Sweep works in Tunbridge Wells and nearby Kent outside of London, often conjure up the image of energetic Bert when they consider the imaginary notion of a chimney sweep. Dancing on the rooftops, whirling his chimney brush and singing with gusto – Bert has become something of a cheerful symbol for sweeps. Of course, it is Bert the chimney sweep that Mr Van Dyke is most remembered for. Well, there’s a lot of excitement at the prospect of Mary Poppins Returns being released in cinemas on December 19 – some 54 years after the original film! Dick Van Dyke, now aged 92, stars again in the sequel as Mr Dawes Jr (having portrayed Mr Dawes Sr in the first film).
