The Munch Bunch was produced by Mary Turner and John
Read of Cinemation. Fifty-two episodes were made and
shown on ATV between 1978 and 1980.
The Munch Bunch were a pile of unwanted fruit, vegetables
and nuts, swept away in the corner of the greengrocer's
shop.... until one very special night when, one by one, they
came to life.
The Munch Bunch included Tom Tomato, Pippa Pear, Lucy
Lemon, Pedra Orange and Wally Walnut. Spud, their
leader, quickly organised a meeting to
plan their escape.
Once free,
the Munch Bunch travelled into the countryside
where they descided to make their homes in and
around an old deserted garden shed. But this was
only the beginning of their adventures....!
