1992's Aladdin is one of Disney's most successful animated films. There have been sequels. There's been a live action remake. A Broadway show. Yet on one point in 1991, a day known during the production as 'Black Friday', things went very wrong. And the creative team had less than 18 months to turn things around.

The story of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret Of The Ooze (1991) was one of haste, and a shoehorned-in rapper. But in the UK, it's also responsible for one of the British Board Of Film Classification's most bizarre issues: and it's all to do with sausages.

Stories of both films are told in this, the latest episode of the multi-award-winning Film Stories podcast.

Now with sausages.
