Christian Beliefs

After an 'encounter with Rolf Harris and Tom Cruise' in 1991, Gary Grant decided that he would only sell toys that he felt comfortable with from a Christian perspective for children to play with. Items that are seen to promote witchcraft and satanism are not sold. Gary Grant has chosen not to sell Harry Potter toys, a move which may have cost him several thousands of pounds, but has attracted much publicity. Many people questioned the selective restrictions, for instance, Star Wars and the "force" were tolerated when many suggested the "dark side" of the force was no different to Harry Potter Witchcraft. Another program frequently involving witchcraft, Rolf Harris Animal Hospital, also it seems was tolerated leaving many to suggest the motives for boycotting Harry Potter merchandise may have not been as stated by the company.

Furthermore, The Entertainer stores do not trade on Sundays, although they claim that this is due to the directors' support of the Keep Sunday Special campaign.
