Greyfriars Bobby

Violence

There is a scene of mild violence in which a dog comes to the rescue of his policeman master who is attacked by a knife-wielding robber. In the ensuing struggle the dog is stabbed, but without detail, and sustains a slightly bloody injury. The dog survives.

Threat and horror

There is brief threat in a scene in which a dog falls into a fast-flowing stream and struggles in the water before making it safely to the bank. In another scene, people are forced to flee from their decrepit houses which start to collapse. Although some people are trapped under rubble there are no serious injuries. There are also brief scary images of skeletons strewn around a vault.

There is also very mild bad language ('God', 'hell', 'damn').

Contains mild violence, threat and peril
