| Story |
 Cheep was a baby bird who fell from his nest
before he learnt to fly. He is helped to recover from his ordeal by Orm - a
clever worm, who lives in a little round underground house. In each episode Orm,
Cheep and their many friends including Mole, Snail and Mouse have an adventure,
which usually involves one of their enemies - Crow, Rat or Cat! |
