What is Mortimer and Arabel about?
Mortimer and Arabel was a puppet show based on Joan Aiken books which ran on CBBC from 1993 to 1994 and was later repeated on BBC CHOICE in the early 2000s. The series tells the story about a girl named Arabel who makes friends with a naughty raven named Mortimer who can only say "Nevermore" when upset; however, most of the neighbors, especially a grumpy old man named Mr Leggit, can't stand Mortimer for all the choas he causes, and it is up to Arabel and her parents to keep Mortimer out of trouble before he upsets the rest of the town with his mischievous behavior. Other characters include: Arabel's parents Mr Jones and Mrs Jones, The Cashandcarry gang, PC Barnoff, The Mayor, The Chief inspector and Mr Leggit. A few books based on the series and a VHS tape covering 12 episodes of the series were released in the early 1990s, but nothing has been released since then, and the show has not been repeated on TV.
