Chorlton and The Wheelies

Chorlton and The Wheelies - September 1976 to June 1979

Classic kids' stop-motion cartoon from the creators of Danger Mouse. Chorlton (a magical dragon) wakes up from an egg one day and he awakens the Wheelies and brightens up the Wheelie World. It had been a long time since Wheelie World had seen a ray of sunshine.
The evil the green kettle witch Fenella who lives in Spout Hall (between Wheelie World and the Sad Lands) is not happy about Chorlton's appearance and is determined to destroy him so that Wheelie World can stay in darkness again. Though Charlton isn't as smart as you might think, he and all his Wheelie friends always manages to beat Fenella and her servants known as the Spikers and the Toadies at their own game.

Now Jump in, take a spin and go round the Wheelie World! "By 'eck!"
