Summary

Featured in this collection from the BBC TV series are Mavis Cruet, the Fat Fairy; Arthur, the Cockney Caterpillar; Evil Edna, the Wicked Witch; Carwash, the Prissy Pussy; and The Moog, the Droopy Dog. Of course, we mustn't forget 'the Beast', who is really Prince Humbert the Handsome, changed into various shapes and sizes by Evil Edna's spells.

They all just happen to be in Doyley Woods when Willo the Wisp is flitting about so he can tell us (through the voice of Kenneth Williams) all the adventures and mishaps that befall them.

Utterly superb - for children and adults alike

Kenneth Williams at his very best. Audio adaptation of the TV series, best if you've seen that first tbh but still brilliant because of Williams performance.

Childhood relived!

This was such a blast from the past. I remember watching the animated series on TV. Kenneth Williams is amazing narrating the voices.

Charming!

Charming (I think Kenneth Williams narration always is) but not as good as I remember from childhood.
