1983 on ITV

CHUNKY CHROMAKEYED puppetry, involving the tales of worm ORM and scraggy bird CHEEP, plus Crow, Mole and co. RICHARD BRIERS narrated the plaintive if peculiar ramblings. “If only Cheep could fly,” lamented the signature tune.

TV CREAM SAYS: THEME ALSO CAUTIONED: "IF CHEEP COULD USE HIS WINGS, HE'D STILL BUMP INTO THINGS"
