Winnie The Pooh made a welcome comeback

The bear from the Hundred Acre Wood was back on our screens in the first trailer for new Disney live-action film, Christopher Robin.

Ewan McGregor stars as Pooh's now grown-up pal, whom the bear comes to visit in London. Christopher's got a very boring office job and has been forced to stay and work over the weekend, abandoning his plans to take his wife and young daughter on holiday.

We bet Pooh will have something to say about that.

"I can't wait for that," Paula Kelly wrote.

Neither can we.
