The Adventures of Twizzle
The series was commissioned by Roberta Leigh from an
idea she had. It was made by AP Films, which was
originally formed to create movies, but because of the lack
of work they created this series to make ends meet, even
though it was made on a shoestring budget.
A total of 52 episodes were made.
Story
Twizzle is a toy, an expensive toy (he costs 2 Shillings and
6 Pence). He lives in a toy shop owned by an old man and
is content with his life, living on a shelf with his friends Mr
Bear and Golliwog. He hopes that the price he costs to buy
will put off most people buying him, so he can stay with his
friends. He was an expensive toy because he could twizzle
- which meant he could stretch his arms and legs.
But one day a spoilt girl comes to the toy shop and wants to
buy him for 2 Shillings. The old man is unwilling to
sell him for that price, but the girl threatens to
scream and cry unless he sells her Twizzle for 2
Shillings.
Reluctantly he agrees, but they can't find Twizzle
because he has hidden himself in the Jack-in-a-box.
The old man tells the girl to come back tomorrow, when
he would have found him. Poor Twizzle doesn't want to
be owned by the spoilt girl, so his friends egg him on to
run away, which he does.
Poor Twizzle is alone in the world and eventually find a big dog kennel to rest in. But the owner of
the kennel isn't a dog, its a cat called Footso. This cat has also run away because he was teased
about his large paws. The two of them become friends and embark on adventure and create a
haven for neglected toys called 'Stray Town'.
