Huxley Pig
Huxley Pig is based on the character that appeared in
some books created by Rodney Peppe. Huxley and all
other characters were voiced by Martin Jarvis. A total of 26
episodes were produced for FilmFair.
Story
Huxley Pig is a pig with a great imagination. He loves to
dress up in costumes from his suitcase, and dreams that he
is that person, such as the time he became was a clown.
But Huxley wonders if it really was only a daydream, as at
the end of each one he finds something that he could have
only picked up if was real (such as a Circus Programme).
He shares all his
adventures
with a Seagull called Sam, but watch out for a
shifty hamster called Horace, who is always out
make a quick buck (at the expense of Huxley).
Huxley Pig
Huxley is a happy pig, who
loves spending time with his
best friend Sam and
daydreaming about being
different people.
Huxley loves to eat, but was put off it once. This was when Cuddles the
dragon made him a Monster Burger and he wasn't impressed by the
taste! He always keeps his lunchbox close to him. He seems to be hungry all the time.
He is scared of heights, but when he was a clown, he was forced to do the high wire. Luckily he
was a natural at it and he made it to the other side.
Huxley has a good sense of humour and loves to tell jokes. Also he can't swim, but he got so fed
up with Horace keep pestering him to buy things on the beach that he thought it would be safer on
a peddlo in the sea!
He is excellent at Hula Hooping.
Sam
Sam is a seagull and is Huxley's friend. He loves to listen to Huxley's
stories and can imagine he's there too. Sam can only talk in Huxley's
dream.He did very well when he joined the circus, as he could jump
through hoops and play the trumpet (even though it sounded terrible).
He's very good at the sticky wine gum throwing act.
Horace
Horace is a hamster, who always appears in Huxley's dreams. It seems
that Horace is always economical with the truth, such as the time he
didn't tell Huxley that the house he was looking at was haunted.
Even though Horace might be a pirate or a salesman, Huxley always
seems recognises him. Horace is always out to make money (be careful
Huxley). He even makes up rules just to get more money out of poor
Huxley, such as the time when he was at the beach.
He can be a bit of a big head. At the circus he thought he was the star of the circus, with his act -
'Hurtling Horace, the star of the trampoline'. But in fact he was a bit rubbish and the crowd booed
him. He wasn't too pleased when Huxley and Sam joined and did a better job than him. He tried to
stop their act...boo!!
Vile Vincent
Vincent is a Vampire butler at a haunted house, that Huxley was thinking
of renting. He lives there with his pet 'Cuddles', who is a green dragon /
monster. He has a very droll sense of humour and loves to make grand
entrances via a secret revolving door.
Cuddles
Cuddles is the pet dragon / monster of Vile Vincent. He feeds him on Dreaded Wheat and Fangfurters. Cuddles has now
become the cook at the haunted house they live at, since the last one left in a hurry (wonder why?).
His speciality is Monster burgers (slugs, earwigs, caterpillars, beetles, woodlice, toad, mud and green slime sauce) and he
was upset when Huxley didn't like the burgers. Cuddles likes playing games, such as swallow my leader.
Watch out for Cuddles in the sea, as he loves to sleep under the water! I hope he remembers to come up for air!
Sidney
Sidney claimed that he was a harmless snake, because he hasn't any fangs. He proved it to the others by saying he bit
himself yesterday and he was still around today.
He wears a fez and likes doing snake dances. Sidney watched pirate Horace bury his treasure and told Huxley where to
find it. He needed Huxley to dig it up, as he doesn't have any arms to help dig with.
But when they opened the treasure chest, he told the others that he had fooled them and that he was poisonous! He said
that the treasure was all his and he'd bite anyone who got near it. By accident Huxley ran into the nearby Palm Tree and a coconut fell and landed on
Sidney's head and knocked him out.
